E269 • Mar 31, 2025 • 13 mins

In this episode, we start with a welcome and introduction to the podcast, followed by a sponsor message from Real Approved Inc. We provide an update on the Canadian housing market and discuss Mark Carney's proposed housing plan. The conversation then explores affordable housing strategies and financial incentives available to buyers. We delve into TD Bank's real-time pricing and broker services developments. The episode also covers the NDP's housing promises for first-time homebuyers and examines recent transactions and trends in the Ontario real estate market. We conclude with closing remarks and a sponsor acknowledgement.

Key Points

  • Mark Carney's housing plan aims to double home building in Canada to nearly 500,000 homes annually by creating Build Canada Homes and providing substantial financing for affordable housing projects.
  • TD Bank's introduction of real-time pricing for brokers is set to create a level playing field across all sales channels, addressing long-standing issues of inconsistent pricing.
  • NDP Leader Jagmeet Singh promises low-interest mortgage loans for first-time homebuyers, arguing that ordinary families should have the same opportunities as large developers to access government-backed financial support.
