Canada's housing market in 2025 is stuck in neutral—not booming or crashing, but stagnant. Despite interest rate cuts, buyer confidence remains low due to employment uncertainty and immigration policy reversals, creating a prolonged stalemate between cautious buyers and reluctant sellers. We're also joined by some of our national event hosts for some boots on the ground updates.
- Toronto has seen home values drop 25% since 2022 with condo prices down 7.5% year-over-year, while Winnipeg posted 7.2% price gains and Calgary remains 35% above pre-pandemic levels.
- Canada's population growth will hit near-zero in 2025-2026, down from 3%+ recently, with permanent resident targets reduced to 395,000 in 2025 and 365,000 by 2027, profoundly impacting rental markets and housing demand.
