We break down what’s happening behind the scenes in the industry and what it means for the homes being built across Ontario.We also talk about how Greybrook is changing the landscape by opening access to institutional-level projects for everyday investors, and how developers are navigating razor-thin margins, red tape, and economic uncertainty.If you care about housing, development, or the future cost of real estate in Canada, this episode will give you clarity.00:00 Introduction to the Podcast and Guests01:40 Matt Bournival's Career Journey04:27 Current Market Dynamics in Real Estate: the US vs Canada07:23 Challenges Facing Developers and Builders11:50 The Impact of Government Regulations15:20 Should They Cut the HST Across the Entire Supply Chain?17:56 International Real Estate Investments22:50 Investment Opportunities with Greybrook24:24 Understanding Real Estate Investment Returns26:33 The Importance of Diversification in Investments31:06 Future Outlook for Real Estate Development35:46 Current Economic Indicators and Inflation37:57 Closing Remarks and Mood BoostsGet in touch with us!Paul Stevenson - Mortgage Agent Level 2 CENTUM Financial Services LPEmail: [email protected]: 1-613-263-4543https://www.paulstevenson.caDavid Warren - Mortgage Agent Level 2 Referral MortgagesEmail: [email protected]: 1-613-686-6003 https://www.referralmortgages.comMatt Bournival - VP, Private Capital Markets | Greybrook Realty Partners Email: [email protected]: https://www.linkedin.com/in/mathieu-bournival/Calendly: https://calendly.com/mathieu-bournival-greybrook/30minIf you have a question or topic you'd like to hear us discuss send us an email at: [email protected] or leave us a comment below!New Episodes of the podcast are available on Wednesdays at 10AM on all podcast services and at www.theottawarealestatepodcast.com Brought to you by Referral Mortgages, PaulStevenson.ca, Guertin/Poirier Avocates Lawyers, CENTUM, BIG - Billyard Insurance Group.
