Is Canada’s housing crisis really about supply, or about the policies shaping the market behind the scenes?

In this episode, John Soutsos continues his conversation with real estate lawyer Mark Morris, exploring what’s really driving the housing and commercial real estate slowdown in the Greater Toronto Area, and what it may take for the market to recover. John and Mark unpack how development fees, government policies, and changing economic realities are influencing the pace of construction and housing affordability. They also explore how different sectors, from residential to retail, office, and industrial real estate, may evolve over the coming years.

John and Mark discuss:

Why development charges and municipal policies can slow housing construction

The impact of government intervention on real estate cycles

When commercial real estate sectors like retail and office may recover

Practical strategies for first-time buyers trying to enter the housing market

And more!
