What if the housing market isn’t “springing back” — but quietly breaking down? And the only people pretending otherwise… are the ones who need your commission cheque? This week, Vince breaks down why the real estate market in 2026 is NOT rebounding, despite what agents, influencers, and headlines want you to believe. It isn’t fear — it’s fundamentals.

The best opportunity for first-time homebuyers in over a decade is happening right now — and almost nobody is talking about it? This isn’t a balanced market. It’s a buyer’s market hiding in plain sight. Prices have retreated, inventory is rising, sellers are under pressure, and qualified first-time buyers now hold real leverage. While most realtors won’t admit it, many sellers — especially those who bought at the peak, renovated on credit, or renewed at higher rates — are hurting and quietly ...

Toronto isn’t declining by accident — it’s being mismanaged, and homeowners, renters, and buyers are paying the price. Rising crime, unreliable transit, gridlocked traffic, higher property taxes, and weaker city services aren’t just quality-of-life issues — they directly affect housing affordability, property values, mortgage risk, and long-term economic confidence across the GTA.

Canada is facing a productivity crisis — and the consequences are showing up in your paycheck, your mortgage, and the price of your home. Canada is facing a productivity crisis — and the consequences are showing up in your paycheck, your mortgage, and the price of your home. For more than a decade, our federal strategy has been immigration-first, productivity-last. Instead of investing in innovation, competitiveness, automation, and efficiency, we’ve relied on population growth to prop u...

Canada is NOT “stabilizing.” It’s suffocating... And the new reports from RE/MAX, the media, and even the government are straight-up gaslighting Canadians who are drowning in debt, soaring payments, and now—massive layoffs like Algoma Steel cutting 1,000 workers. What does this mean for Canadian Homeowners and the future of the economy? For more information, be sure to visit https://www.owlmortgage.ca/ & https://wealthbuilders.realpm.ca/

What if the biggest threat to Canada’s economy isn’t inflation, interest rates, or even the housing crisis… but a government finally admitting the math doesn’t work — while pretending the old tools can still fix it? This week, Vince breaks down Mark Carney’s first federal budget and what it REALLY means for homeowners, buyers, and the future of Canada’s economy.

I just did what most Canadians wish they could — I went to Ottawa and spoke directly to the Senate about Canada’s broken housing system. And they listened. This week I share some of the key topics I discussed in front of the Standing Senate Committee on Banking, Commerce and the Economy — a room full of sharp minds trying to untangle the housing mess Canada has engineered over the past 20 years. I opened with what every Canadian already feels: affordability isn’t strained — it’s shattered. I ...

In Canada, the mortgage stress test—brought in to protect homeowners—is now punishing them. It’s hijacked the very foundation of Canadian lending: the Five C’s of Credit (Character, Capacity, Capital, Credit, Collateral). Today, none of that matters. One algorithm decides your future. Welcome to 2025: Where the “Computer says NO.” This week, Vince exposes how the OSFI stress test and Bank of Canada policies are trapping responsible Canadians in Mortgage Jail — forcing them into alternative le...

Canada’s household debt crisis is spiralling out of control — and nobody’s talking about it. With over $2.9 trillion in household debt, Canadians are now spending 17 cents of every dollar just to cover interest. Mortgages are resetting, credit lines are maxed out, and families are suffocating under higher payments.

Every mortgage renewal in Canada right now feels like a coin flip — do you lock in for safety or ride the variable and hope rates keep falling. Here’s the truth no one’s telling you: there’s no one-size-fits-all answer. What works for one family could sink another. That’s why strategy matters more than headlines. ]'After eight Bank of Canada rate cuts since 2024, some people are celebrating… but for hundreds of thousands of Canadians, the reality is brutal — renewals at double or triple their...

Canada says it’s finally fixing the housing crisis — by building homes like cars. “Build Canada Homes” is the federal government’s big modular housing plan: faster, cheaper, greener. But can a country buried in red tape really pull it off? For more information, be sure to visit https://www.owlmortgage.ca/ & https://wealthbuilders.realpm.ca/

Want to know the biggest real scam in Toronto real estate? It’s not greedy developers or foreign investors — it’s your own government. Right now, up to 27% of every new home’s price in the GTA is made up of government charges. That’s not land, not steel, not bricks — it’s bureaucracy. On a million-dollar townhouse, that’s up to $270,000 in fees — and you’re the one paying for it every month through your mortgage. While City Hall talks about “equity” and “justice,” Toronto’s housing market is ...

Canada’s Debt Crisis Is Here — And It’s Worse Than You Think. Canadians are drowning in debt — and no one wants to admit it. Household debt in Canada just hit $2.9 trillion, with the debt-to-income ratio soaring to record highs. For every dollar we earn, we owe $1.80. And now, rising interest costs are eating up our paycheques — not groceries, not savings, just interest.

What if I told you Canadian banks convinced you to “save” $2 a month… and in return, you gave them hundreds—sometimes thousands—every year? This isn’t about fees. It’s not about interest. It’s about blindness. Banks and credit card companies pushed us into digital statements under the disguise of “going green.” But here’s the truth: it’s not about the environment—it’s about hiding the money dripping out of your account every month. From forgotten streaming services to unused gym memberships, ...

Are Canadian homeowners reaching their breaking point? The latest Bank of Canada rate cut might sound like relief—but for millions of families, it’s too little, too late. Mortgage delinquencies are climbing in Ontario and B.C., consumer debt is piling up, and renewal shock is crushing hardworking Canadians who once believed in the dream of homeownership.

Canada is in trouble — and nobody wants to admit it. The Bank of Canada is about to cut interest rates for the 8th time, and while some people are cheering for a “housing rebound,” the truth is much darker. This isn’t a sign of strength. It’s a warning siren for just how weak our economy really is. For more information, be sure to visit https://www.owlmortgage.ca/ & https://wealthbuilders.realpm.ca/

Canada’s economy is in crisis mode—and it’s not just inflation or interest rates. It’s productivity. Bank of Canada Deputy Governor Carolyn Rogers just called it a “crisis”—and she’s right. Productivity in Canada is collapsing, the gap with the U.S. is at record highs, and unless we wake up, the fallout will hit jobs, wages, and housing.

Canada’s job market just flashed a massive red warning light—and homeowners, buyers, and investors need to pay attention. The August 2025 Labour Force Survey shows 66,000 jobs lost in a single month—107,000 in two months. And it’s not seasonal work disappearing—it’s the backbone of our economy: construction, manufacturing, and retail.

STOP! Don’t Buy Your Next Home Before Selling! The old “buy first, sell later” playbook is DEAD in 2025. In today’s market, buying before selling could cost you hundreds of thousands, sleep, and your financial peace.

Canada’s “housing boom” is a scam. We’re not building homes for families — we’re building rentals for corporations. In Toronto, over 80% of new builds are purpose-built rentals. CMHC is backing billions for landlords, while first-time buyers are locked out and priced out. This isn’t just bad policy… it’s generational theft. If we keep replacing homeownership with rentals, we’re locking in a future where equity, stability, and the middle class disappear. Here’s why the system is rigged, how it...
