  • It’s December and time for our last monthly Toronto and Vancouver real estate roundtable of the calendar year with my co-host John Pasalis in Toronto and Steve Saretsky in Vancouver.

    This week, John and Steve explain why a jump up in YOY sales numbers obscures the reality of a sluggish market with some segments performing better than other and just how Vancouver and Toronto have come to top the list of the most expensive 25 cities in the US & Canada, topping LA, San Francisco and New York. We ended with a lively debate about whether large corporations should be allowed to buy homes to rent out as Canada’s Finance Minister Chrystia Freeland calls for public submissions on this issue.

  • In this episode, we’re diving into a timeless economic solution that’s gaining new attention in today’s housing debates: the Land Value Tax (LVT).

    Unlike traditional property taxes, which tax both land and the structures on it, a Land Value Tax focuses solely on the land. This means property owners aren’t penalized for making improvements, like building more housing—a crucial distinction in the context of today’s housing crisis.

    We’ll explore the origins of this idea, tracing back to economists like Adam Smith and David Ricardo in the 1700s, and its popularization by Henry George in his influential 1879 book Progress and Poverty. Advocates of LVT, often called Georgists, have emerged from across the political spectrum, including notable figures like Milton Friedman and Joseph Stiglitz.

    Joining us is Floyd Marinesco from Common Wealth Canada, a think tank advocating for a Land Value Tax to address housing challenges in Canada. Floyd shares insights into how this idea could reshape housing markets and what lessons might apply to other regions facing similar issues.

  • In this week’s episode, John and Urmi talk to Matt Young, Founder, President and CEO of Republic a Greater Toronto Area home building company and founder of the CantWin, the Coalition Against New Home Taxes, a campaign to urge governments to reduce the fees and taxes charged to builders.

    Matt explains why he feels that of all costs facing buildings reducing taxes is the easiest way to make homes more affordable at a time when demand has really fallen for new housing.
