Canada Buyers Gain More Choice in 2026
Looking ahead to 2026, homebuyers across Canada can expect a welcome shift: more options and a steadier path to finding the right fit. With borrowing costs holding steady and housing prices showing more consistency, there’s a clearer window for planning your move. After years of uncertainty—whether it was inventory shortages, changing interest rates, or shifting economic winds—this softer price growth signals a market where buyers can breathe a little easier and make thoughtful decisions. The central bank’s hint that overnight lending rates may remain near 2% through much of 2026 is a strong foundation for buyer confidence. In balanced or buyer-leaning regions, you’ll have more time to weigh your choices, focus on what truly feels like home, and avoid the pressure to rush. Notably, Fredericton has once again topped the list for 2026, thanks to its unique blend of affordability, stable equity growth, and a lifestyle that’s hard to match. Drawing on two decades of helping people find not just a house, but a place to call home, I see these changes as a chance for buyers to approach their next move with greater peace of mind and clarity.

Slowly but surely Canada's housing market is turning around
I've always believed that a home is more than just four walls—it's a foundation for your future. Lately, I've been keeping a close eye on Canada's housing market, and after four months of increased home resales and two consecutive months of price gains, there’s real momentum building. While inventory levels are finding their footing and new listings are on the decline, activity remains about 12% below the 10-year average—a reminder that every region is experiencing this shift a bit differently. With over 20 years guiding clients through changing markets, I know how important it is to blend patience with preparation. As we continue to see these signs of recovery, I’m here to ensure your next move feels just right—because finding the right place to call home should always feel personal.

Bank of Canada Holds 2.25% Key Rate
The Bank of Canada has decided to keep its key rate steady at 2.25%. This move comes as the economy continues its recovery—Canada’s GDP grew by 3.3% in the second quarter, and unemployment dipped to 6.4% in July. As someone who’s helped clients navigate many market shifts over the years, I know how these decisions can influence everything from mortgage rates to confidence in making a move. The Bank will reassess things on October 28, 2026, reviewing both inflation and economic conditions. I’m always watching these developments closely so I can share clear, practical advice and help you feel confident about your next steps.

Housing affordability improved in July from June
July brought a bit of relief for home seekers: in 10 out of 13 Canadian markets—including Vancouver, Hamilton, and Regina—home prices fell, making it a little easier to afford a mortgage. While mortgage rates saw a slight dip, it was really the lower prices that shifted the numbers and helped more buyers qualify. Having spent over two decades guiding clients through changing markets, I know how important these shifts are for families searching for a place to truly call home. My approach is always rooted in honesty and clear advice, so you can move forward confidently—one step closer to finding the right fit for you.
