@marissenmark Ah yes, because owning a vehicle is what caused an affordability crisis.

Vancouver is actually lucky that local First Nations are able to use their own rules to provide this much-needed housing that’s walking distance to downtown Vancouver. This is the kind of housing that reduces the necessity of owning a car, making life more affordable and convenient for the people living there. Over 50% of trips in Vancouver are already made by walking, transit or bicycle.

@BenRabidoux Overleveraged borrowers, high cost of living cities, poor transit systems, poor economy

What's going on in BC? Noticeably worse insolvency trends than the rest of the country right now

@ManyBeenRinsed Yeah I’ve been looking at a second vehicle and my leasing guy said the used electrics are flooding the market and no one wants to buy them lol

Spend 40K on an EV to save gas and maintenance. Shit loses up to 50-60% of its value within 60 months of owning. God damn you lose over 20K of its value over that timespan so you save a few bucks at the pump a year? How’s those battery replacement costs? Few.

@MarcNixon24 It was a pretty tame episode, good for people to see who Pierre is as a person but missed opportunity politically imo

BREAKING 🚨 Sources inside Poilievre’s team have already heard Audio of the Joe Rogan episode. BASED And SPICY This episode will break the INTERNET This is the MASS AWAKENING EVENT WE WAITED FOR CBC Can’t put a LID ON THIS

@danielfoch @MarkAllenRE 2026 saw the 25 year low and said “hold my beer”

Last year was the worst year in decades for Canadian real estate. So far, 2026 is way worse: Actual monthly activity came in 8.1% below February 2025:

@SteveSaretsky We just need everyone to switch to an energy efficient heat pump and we’ll be fine. Lock in Canada, elbows up!

Canada is now a net importer of electricity. Yet you have governments in BC banning cheap and abundant natural gas in new homes.

@danielfoch @Dknowzappare You sure it’s not a vibe-cession?

I think Canada's jobs print just confirmed we're in a recession. I can't see Q1 GDP being positive now and we're coming off a Q4 negative GDP growth= 2 consecutive = recession. We already saw 2 negative quarters of GDP growth in 2025, they just weren't consecutive.

@SteveSaretsky Looks like Mayor bike lanes is at it again!

You can’t afford a house because there’s a war in Iran. - Canada’s housing minister

@BenRabidoux @WOWA_Canada Oh they’re moving, and they just keep moving

Fixed rates aren't moving yet, but just wait. 5-yr bond yields are up 40bps so far in March. Look out!! @WOWA_Canada is the best source for tracking the evolution of mortgage rates

@JacintaAllanMP Can the seller get their appraisal done with that also?

If you're selling a home, you should have to provide a building inspection report - instead of every interested buyer paying for their own. We're changing the rules to require exactly that.

@danielfoch I’m happy for tenants and young families. It’s nice that something becomes more affordable in this province.

Canada's rental market just flipped in favour of tenants | Here's what happens next youtu.be/t4U3mbrVMz4

@SteveSaretsky Interest is irrelevant when the math ain’t mathing. Developers want to develop, so “strong interest” is not shocking. But developers will also look at the proforma and decide not to build, because math.

BC’s housing minister says housing data implies strong interest from the development community to keep building. I couldn’t disagree more. Everything is pointing to a total collapse in new housing construction over the next few years. biv.com/news/commentar…

@danielfoch Don’t sell yourself short big dawg

@GoldAlexander Nope if I did he would he nore attractive

The Toronto housing market is showing strange signs: sales are down, prices are falling, and homes are taking much longer to sell. Despite official forecasts, the latest numbers reveal a significant slowdown, with average prices down 7.1% and days on market soaring.

@brockpierson Don’t claw your job, job your claw.

Openclaw is one big grift. Nobody is building anything real. It's just grifting influencers telling YOU how to build stuff (but never build anything themselves). Interesting how you can be building 24/7 but have nothing to show for it... Check the track record of these snake oil salesmen. Same type of person who polluted crypto with their grifty ways. Selling a false dream and taking money from innocent people is disgusting. You can't change my mind.

@matthew14580682 @JonFlynnREstats Huh?

@GoldAlexander @JonFlynnREstats So whats that mean? Slightly more involved forged paperwork? Something like 80% of people, if they had to buy their home today at todays rates and payments couldn't do so.

My household income is significantly ABOVE the avg in my region (not that impressive, single income). I ran a mortgage pre-approval with 10% down as if I was a first time buyer. No debt, great credit. I qualified for a home significantly BELOW average. Why is that?

@smaugizbored @ronmortgageguy It’s not funny when you explain the joke.

@GoldAlexander @ronmortgageguy If by "long" you mean handcuffed for 15 years by the sunk cost fallacy of being down $1m, then yes.

A Message JUST For My Mortgage Sales Peeps The Mortgage Business has heated up: 2025 was good & 2026 is starting off even better I know you think it's all because of YOU, you're hard work & brilliant marketing  But it's NOT YOU. It's just a rising market with a Gillion Renewals So don't fool yourself: save up your money NOW: 2027 will be a very different year

@ManyBeenRinsed Now do meat and dairy.

8 strawberries cases for $14.99 and these so called experts telling me they ain’t gonna cut interest rates. 😂
