  • Homeownership is viewed by many in Canada as a milestone and a major step on the path toward setting oneself up financially for retirement.
    But breaking into the housing market remains elusive for many Canadians.
    In recent polling done exclusively for Global News, around 72 per cent of non-owners said they’ve “given up” on ever being able to own a home.
    Meanwhile, 80 per cent said homeownership is now a privilege reserved for the rich.
    Anne Gaviola has more on whether renters can set themselves up for financial success in the long run.

      I had my heart set on Canada earlier this year to move to permanently with my small business enterprise but Canada is not as cheap as I thought it would be but I guess this is a global thing. I have lived in 5 countries over the decades but this renting vs mortgage debate is certainly global and is trashing dreams for many many people. You have to be really financially savvy earlier on in life and unfortunately for me I didn't look at properties in-depth like I should have but still have a light of optimism that says never say never

      ​@StephSancia Canada would be lucky to have you. One big consideration for your business would be. We have a tax rise every 6 months. That will effect the price of goods. The cost of transporting the goods. Also the cost of heating and lighting your store. Also if you look at the world debt clocks thing are not good.

      @@EyeSee4.8 actually I work from home with a retail fashion design enterprise in a niche market. I'm currently renting a 5 bedroom rustic farmhouse and all businesses conducted online so I think you have got your head into some stereotypical High Street boutique and although that sounds wonderful I have found that working from home in a suitable property is more productive and stress free for myself. I honestly think that in 2024 working online has taken fancy with a lot of people and I think it is critical for global sales but as a one person business enterprise then this situation for me is absolutely perfect

    I'm hoping there will be a housing crisis so I can buy cheaply when I sell a few houses in 2025. As a backup plan, I've been thinking about purchasing stocks. What advice do you have for choosing the best buying time? On the one hand, I continue to read and see trading earnings of over $500k each week. On the other side, I keep hearing that the market is out of control and experiencing a dead cat bounce. Why does this happen?

    Canada cannot afford to turn away foreign money which has been jacking up real estate prices in high population growth cities. Government red tape and cell phone tapping workers make home construction slow and expensive. Property owners love to see their homes double, triple and keep going up in price. Wages and salaries continue to lag behind. Younger generations face the blues.
