The price of the average home in Canada increased by a record $147,000 compared to last year. Is housing going up forever? How are first-time home buyers supposed to enter such a hot market? On today’s podcast, Ben Rabidoux, founder of North Cove Advisors and Edge Realty Analytics, returns with his insights on the Canadian housing market and predictions for 2022. Ben also gives his thoughts on inflation, the impact on consumers if interest rates go up, and whether consumer debt levels will rise substantially in the coming months. Tune in for a great discussion!
