$3 Million Won’t Get You a Mansion in Toronto (and Not Even a Nice Home in West Vancouver ) — Toronto & Vancouver Real Estate Roundtable September 2023

School’s back and it’s time for our monthly Toronto-Vancouver real estate roundtable for September with Urmi, Steve and John!

This month, John and Steve explain what the fall real estate market might look like in Toronto & Vancouver based on what’s happening now and next.

Plus, we dig into how politicians at every level - federal, provincial and municipal - have led to markets in which $3 million dollars won’t get you a mansion in Toronto - or even a nice home in West Vancouver.

Along the way, we talk about:

  • The Bank of Canada’s latest interest rate moves
  • The latest political proposals from all federal parties, as the Progressive Conservatives, lead by Pierre Pollievre, are overtaking the current Liberal Government, lead by Justin Trudeau
  • Ontario’s Greenbelt scandal
  • Toronto’s potential ‘mansion’ tax
