In today’s episode, John talks to Murtaza Haider about rent controls in Canada and their potential impact on rental supply. Murtaza is a professor of Data Science and Real Estate Management at Toronto Metropolitan University.
In the lively chat, we discuss why Ontario has seen very little growth in rental housing even though the new rental supply is not rent controlled. We also discuss the differences in approach to rental housing between North American and European economists and governments. North Americans lean more towards a free market approach to rental housing, while Europeans have coupled adequate rental supply while maintaining policies that protect tenants.

As they head off low polling numbers ahead of next year’s election, Canada’s governing Liberals have released a federal budget largely focussed on Canada’s housing availability and affordability crisis. Urmi and John discuss the background and efficacy of the many measures proposed including: subsuming immigration policy and targets to housing realities, an increased capital gains tax that will hit some housing investors, an extended ban on foreign buyers, and a pile of supply-side policies that is aimed at yielding a net 2 million new homes by 2031. What - if anything - will actually work?

It’s Toronto-Vancouver real estate roundtable time with Urmi, Steve and John!
After the egg hunts, we’re left in that weird grey area, both weather-wise and in our real estate markets - John and Steve take us through the latest stats and on the ground realities. Also: when will interest rates start to fall and how will this impact the market and investors? Plus, the Liberal federal government, in full election mode, are now throwing around out policy announcements every day - which ones, from reductions in non-permanent resident numbers to a new renter bill of rights will actually make a difference?

We are back with our popular consumer Q/A segment, ‘The Situation’!
Urmi once again asks John to respond to the detailed questions you send in about the real estate decisions you are making as you navigate through the Toronto area housing market.
Today, we hear from a family who wonders if they should take advantage of the opportunity to buy the home they are renting from their landlord, a reluctant investor who wonders whether he should rent out his newly built condo or sell it and a home owner who wonders whether garden suites/laneway homes add value to a property?

In today’s episode, Urmi talks to Gregor Craigie, journalist, Host of ‘This Island’ on CBC Radio One in Victoria, and author of the new book, “Our Crumbling Foundation: How We Solve Canada’s Housing Crisis.” Gregor’s new book looks at the very human stories of those living out Canada’s housing crisis across the country and hopeful examples of policies from around the world that may help address it.
In our chat, we talk about the diversified faces of the crisis from young families priced out of Vancouver, newcomer home buyers getting into financial trouble in the Toronto area, renters being priced out of Montreal, and those living permanently in RVs in Nova Scotia. We also discuss how successful stories of infill supply expansion found in other global cities might be problematic to realize in Canada, the role immigration has played in the crisis and how we might better hold our politicians to account about our housing crisis.

It’s time for our March Toronto-Vancouver real estate roundtable with Urmi, Steve and John!
As both the market heats up, John and Steve assess whether anticipated interest rate declines later this year will actually happen and how it will impact the real estate market. Also, an audience question asks whether a slump in the construction sector on which the Canadian economy is so dependent may lead to a recession. Plus Urmi asks John and Steve to assess whether some of the many new housing measures suddenly being thrown at the housing affordability crisis are helping or hurting.

It’s the March ‘The Situation’, our in-depth consumer Q/A!
As usual, Urmi asks John to respond to the detailed questions you send in about the real estate decisions you are making as you navigate through the Toronto area housing market.
This month, we hear from a family who are considering hiring their neighbour to sell their mom's home. And given that home prices in the Toronto area are out of reach for most families, isn't it only natural to expect prices to fall so that homes become affordable again?

In today’s episode, John and Urmi talk to Mikal Skuterud about Canada’s changing migration policies and larger impacts on society and housing. Mikal is a Professor at the University of Waterloo who specializes in labour economics and immigration policy.
In the lively chat, we talk about how Canada’s historic levels of migrants have recently spiked and how the flows of different arrivals such as students, temporary workers and permanent workers have been changing. We compare Canada vs US approaches, how immigration links to economic productivity and take on some myths.

It’s the February ‘The Situation’, our in-depth consumer Q/A!
As usual, Urmi asks John to respond to the detailed questions you send in about the real estate decisions you are making as you navigate through the Toronto area housing market.
This month, we hear from a buyer who was going to wait to jump back into the market amidst high prices and high interest rates but is now worried about falling behind another market surge and a seller who wonders if they should sell now, in the spring or in the fall - when interest rates might fall. And when it comes to long-term home price appreciation, which is a better bet: Toronto or its suburbs?

Today’s episode is a return to our semi-regular feature called Move Smartly ideas, where Urmi and John unpack and discuss some of the bigger issues impacting the housing market in Toronto and Canada.
This week, Urmi and John return to talking about some of the ‘big numbers’ in housing policy and economics. This time, we talk about how Canada’s population growth impacts our housing market and affordability issues and why we can’t ‘build our way’ out of the problem. Also, why investor demand is hard to measure and why it is of particular importance.

It’s a New Year — and we’re back with our first roundtable for 2024 on Toronto-Vancouver real estate roundtable with Urmi, Steve and John!
What did year-end stats suggest about the year that was in Toronto and Vancouver real estate — and what’s in store for 2024? And how do we make sense of a slew of recent eye-brow raising stats from Canada’s top politicians and venerable international publications on everything from Canada’s debt levels to its housing affordability?

It’s December — and time for our monthly Toronto-Vancouver real estate roundtable with Urmi, Steve and John!
Will the Bank of Canada’s second rate hold and murmurs of a peak at 5% impact re-spark markets in Toronto and Vancouver? And deep dive into what campaigning Conservative candidate for PM, Pierre Poilievre gets right and wrong about Canada’s housing affordability crisis.

Today is one of our favourite features, the in-depth consumer question segment, which we call ‘The Situation’.
As we do each month, Urmi Desai, Move Smartly Editor, asks co-host John Pasalis, Broker and President at Realosophy Realty here in Toronto, to respond to the detailed questions you send in about the real estate decisions you are making as you navigate through in the Toronto area market.
This month, we hear from first-time buyers trying to buy a home fit for a family while keeping up their retirement goals, those trying to rent out their properties in a slowing rental market. And a condo seller wonders if they should wait until the spring market.
If you would like to send in your questions to be potentially be featured on a future episode, please email [email protected]

Today’s episode is a return to our semi-regular feature called Move Smartly ideas, where Urmi and John unpack and discuss some of the bigger issues impacting the housing market in Toronto and Canada.
This week, Urmi asks John about some the ‘big numbers’ in housing policy and economics - and wonders whether we know how accurate they are in terms of setting the goals for housing that Canada, Ontario and Toronto need to meet and why we don’t hear more about them from our politicians and the media when it comes to tracking and staying accountable for progress?
If you enjoy listening to our show and find it informative, I’d like to ask you to take a moment to leave a five-star review on the podcast platform you are listening to us on.
