  • Canadian Housing Market Rebounds [View article]
    Cdn homebuyers are bargain hunting. Price expectations have dropped dramatically off their brief pre-May 2007 exponential rise into super-bubble territory and sales are now being made at realistic prices. Many prices are down by $100k and more.

    There was probably some pent up demand created by the unaffordable bubble period (when people couldn't buy at those prices) followed by the uncertainty period beginning last September (when people wouldn't buy), and that demand is now being met by significantly more affordable houses. Canada seems to have suffered a mere sideswipe from the US train wreck and Cdns are regaining confidence that the world will not be ending just yet. Cdn banks are willing and able to lend and all's right with the world, it would seem.
