Kenny is right.
Back to fundamentals.
Also, if interest rates rise enough, investors now dump and ruins the market for all.
Interestingly, I saw only the beginning of Brian Persaud's TV show. Only first 10 minutes can be streamed. I do not get Rogers.
They had Brad Lamb on and when he was asked about assignments for investment condos, he thinks this is terrible and should be outlawed.
Once could view this 2 ways. He appreciates it ends up having speculators drive up prices or alternatively in his self serving role as a developer, he would rather end up with end users and investors who want to keep. I say this as theoretically, in my view at least, if prices drop and you have alot of speculator investor/flippers if prices drop enough, they may just walk away even though they would held accountable but if they are foreign investors, good luck chasing them, and developers would get back properties worth less than they were originally sold for.
The other interesting thing is both he and a "top agent" who was on the show said investment at $400-450 /sq.ft. approx. in the core they thought was OK but stay away from higher priced product. Well, most of the core is $550-600 so is this saying they even agree that investment real estate no longer makes sense in the core?
Perhaps more detail came out later but it was interesting none the less.
