- BMO unveils outlook for housing sales, prices and expectations among Canadian home and condo owners - Results from poll showing how many Canadians intend to buy a property in the next five years - Experts from BMO, RE/MAX and the Canadian Home Builders' Association provide insights into real estate trends and examine which cities will be the next hot spots
(firmenpresse) - TORONTO, ONTARIO -- (Marketwire) -- 01/08/13 -- Canada's housing market has undergone a major shift since the beginning of last year. Sales are down in some of Canada's major markets - Toronto and Vancouver are off double digits compared to a year ago, while even Calgary has simmered down after a year that saw a double-digit rise in sales.
Stricter mortgage lending guidelines, including a reduced maximum amortization period and a purchase price ceiling of $1 million dollars for government insured mortgages, have prompted some potential buyers to move to the sidelines.
Meanwhile, real estate prices - with the exception of some areas in Vancouver - are holding steady, supported by low interest rates. Since 2000, the price of houses across Canada has more than doubled on average.
Experts from BMO, RE/MAX and the Canadian Home Builders' Association will participate in a conference call to discuss the real estate environment in Canada, and what prospective buyers and sellers need to keep in mind. Panellists will discuss the following topics:
