CMHC Foresees Stable Housing Market Into Year-End
As we move through this year, we're seeing CMHC forecast a continued slowdown in housing starts across Canada. Over the past six months, housing starts have dipped by 1.3% to 244,149 units, with the monthly pace holding steady at 229,000. Year-to-date, starts are down 4%. Interestingly, Montreal and Vancouver have seen increases, while Toronto remains flat. Completions, however, are down by 11.2%.

For buyers and sellers navigating these shifts, having up-to-date insights is more important than ever. My focus—after years of hands-on experience in real estate, renovations, and property investment—is to guide clients safely and professionally, whether we're conducting virtual showings or handling paperless transactions. Understanding these market dynamics helps us make informed, confident decisions together.

Canada Needs More Homes to Sustain Affordability
As someone who has spent years navigating the ups and downs of the Canadian housing market, I’m always tuned in to the factors shaping our affordability landscape. Recent data shows that Canada needs between 417,000 and 469,000 new homes built each year to restore affordability to pre-pandemic levels by 2036. Yet, we’re seeing a slowdown in new construction—particularly for ownership housing—which puts those fragile affordability gains at risk. While more rental options are being added, the number of homes built for ownership simply isn’t keeping pace, and that imbalance could leave us short when demand returns. Slower population growth has helped a bit, but the pace of building has still dropped faster than demand. For buyers and investors, the lesson is clear: protecting affordability means we need to keep ownership construction strong now, not later. My focus remains on guiding clients through these shifts safely and professionally—so you can make informed decisions, whether you’re buying, selling, or investing in this evolving market.

Calgary Resales Take a Temporary Detour
As we hit mid-Q3, Calgary’s resale market is showing a temporary dip—resales are down 3.4% month-over-month and 11% year-over-year, and our local price index has eased by 0.3% compared to last year. These numbers paint a picture of a market that’s pausing, not plunging. It’s a softer environment, not a sudden shift, and that’s something I’m keeping a close eye on for my clients.

An economist recently noted that renewed trade tensions are driving a sense of uncertainty, and Calgary’s current slowdown fits this broader mood. In fact, Calgary started diverging from other major markets back in late Q1, with activity trending lower and holding that path for about six months.

What does this mean for homeowners and buyers? With resale and price growth both softer, the usual equity cushion is thinner—so renewal pressures can feel a little sharper here than elsewhere. The central bank held its policy rate steady through late Q3, but with some economists eyeing a possible year-end hike, there’s a bit more unpredictability baked into the local recovery.

I’ve always believed in keeping my clients as informed as possible, especially during these shifting times. If you’re navigating a renewal or considering a move, it’s all about making the decision that’s right for you—safely and with confidence.
