Key Points
- The closure of iPro Realty due to financial mismanagement has significantly impacted 2,400 agents and their clients, highlighting the importance of understanding where consumer deposits are held and managed.
- High-credit-score borrowers are increasingly turning to private lenders due to tighter lending standards and the federally mandated mortgage stress test, which have made it harder to qualify for traditional bank mortgages.
- Brampton's real estate market has seen a notable decline in average sale prices, reaching near five-year lows, which is encouraging more people to enter the market and potentially improving affordability for first-time homebuyers.
