Canadians Show Renewed Interest in Entering the Housing Market ComFree Realty explains 

Recent research by Dye & Durham Ltd. reveals a significant shift in Canadian housing market sentiments. As we step into 2024, more potential homebuyers are ready to make their move without waiting for further price drops or interest rate cuts. This change reflects a growing trend of individuals tired of trying to time the market and indicates renewed optimism in the housing sector.

 

Increased Interest in Buying and Selling

Growing Buyer Confidence: Fewer Canadians are postponing home purchases, signaling a boost in buyer confidence. This shift is evident from the decreasing percentage of those waiting for lower prices or interest rates.

Rising Seller Activity: Homeowners are also more inclined to list their properties, with an uptick in selling plans observed in the fourth quarter of 2023.

 

Economic Outlook and Personal Finances

Inflation and Interest Rate Perspectives: While there’s a general anticipation of inflation cooling and interest rates stabilizing, most people remain cautious, not expecting significant decreases in mortgage rates or a more affordable housing market soon.

Financial Concerns: Many Canadians express concern over their personal finances, preparing for increased costs in essentials and a possible recession.
