      Ah yes. The snowstorm is exactly what slumped sales. I better buy now before the wonderful spring weather

      Definitely not because the median home price is 12 x median income or that wages have been stagnant for three decades. And definitely not because the economy is contracting. And certainly not because Canada’s household debt to income is at a staggering 177%. And don’t even think of suggesting population growth may actually be negative this year.

      „why won’t people who lost their jobs buy our overpriced shitboxes?“

      „is it because we’re pricing them too high?“

      „no, it’s the fucking weather’s fault“

      Realtors are always spinning. It’s the coping that’s sad.

      “It’s a good time to buy and it’s a good time to sell.”

      It’s not the sky-high unemployment rate, it’s not the economic uncertainty, it’s not the high interest rates, it’s not the ridiculous condo fees, it’s not sky high living expenses.

      It’s the snow storm that has cooled the housing market, lol.

      Says right there in the article that many first-time buyers are waiting for rate cuts. That, and people are waiting for the trade situation to stabilize

      Markets work in cycles, housing is no different.

      Prices are simply too high for most first time home buyers – unless they are very well salaried or have parental money.

      Eventually every pyramid scheme runs out of suckers at the bottom..

      From the crowd that says anytime is a good time to sell real estate. I guess price, debt, interest rates, taxes, and other costs don’t come into the picture.

      BS. Housing sales have been abysmal for the past year! The issue is consumer confidence – not the weather.

      Oh thank goodness. I was starting to get worried when I saw their houses depreciating in November

      Ironically they are partially to blame for the market cooling because they were complicit in inflating prices. They have way too much power to set their own rules without any accountability.

      Market is slow.

      For sellers, it’s a good time to take your property off the market and wait it out.

      For property buyers, it’s a good time to negotiate a nice price. There aren’t as many competing offers, and you’ve got leverage. Rates aren’t as bad as before – and may come down.

      If you wait for rates to come down, that will trigger other buyers to come out and compete with you – and drive up your price.

      Have lived through May cycles and it’s always the same.

      Of course they would…. Blame anything but the high prices and the state of the economy.

      guys, it was the weather, not that 90% of homes are unafordable to 90% of the population

      So not only are they world class economists they are now meteorologists too.
