Canada Needs More Homes to Sustain Affordability | Oakville Real Estate for Buyers, Sellers and Move-up Families. Feras Riyal, Broker | Royal LePage Pinnacle | 647-383-7111
As someone who’s spent a decade helping families find their next home in Oakville, I keep a close eye on the bigger trends that shape our local market. Right now, there’s a real concern: Canada’s recent improvements in housing affordability are looking shaky as new home construction slows down, especially when it comes to ownership homes. Latest estimates suggest we’ll need between 417,000 and 469,000 new housing starts every year to bring affordability back to where it was before the pandemic by 2036. That gap hasn’t really narrowed.

Most of the new builds across the country are rentals, while construction of homes for ownership has fallen off—though the extra rentals have helped balance things a bit. Even with slower population growth giving us a little breathing room on prices, the pace of building has dropped faster than demand. That means if demand picks up, we could find ourselves short on homes again.

For those looking to move up or make Oakville their next chapter, it’s a reminder: protecting affordability isn’t just about waiting for better timing—it’s about keeping ownership options in the mix, so there’s enough choice when you’re ready to make a move.

Canadian Home Prices Only Have One Path Forward
As someone who’s walked alongside hundreds of Oakville families on their move-up journey, I pay close attention to the numbers shaping our housing market. The latest figures show Canadian housing affordability has improved for the 11th quarter in a row, with the index now at 41.3%—down 2.4 points year-over-year. That’s a positive shift, thanks to a combination of rate cuts, modest price drops, and income growth. Still, let’s be real: homes remain largely out of reach for many, and prices are hovering near record highs. After a decade spent helping clients navigate these ups and downs, I know that finding the right fit isn’t just about the numbers—it’s about making a move that feels right for you and your family.

Ontario homebuyers urged to check electrical permits before buying
One important step I always recommend for Oakville buyers—especially in today’s more measured market—is to take a close look at the home’s electrical history. Before you commit, make sure any electrical work has the right permits and inspections in place. This simple check can save you from future headaches and surprise costs. I’ve seen firsthand how hiring licensed contractors and reviewing the electrical capacity and main systems pays off. In some cases, arranging a dedicated electrical inspection is the peace of mind you didn’t know you needed. For every move-up buyer hoping for a smooth transition, these precautions help ensure your next home is safe, sound, and ready for your family.

Canada's housing markets show persistent regional splits
Across Canada, housing markets continue to tell very different stories depending on where you look. Toronto’s recovery has lost some steam with prices dipping, while Ottawa is seeing prices edge upward. BC’s prices are still dropping, but not as sharply, and Montreal is feeling the weight of ongoing affordability challenges. Meanwhile, Calgary and Edmonton, though cooling, are still seeing the upside of steady population growth.

As someone who’s spent a decade guiding move-up buyers here in Oakville, I’m always watching these trends to understand what they might mean for our local market. Every region has its own rhythm, and making sense of these shifts is a big part of keeping the process straightforward for my clients. The Oakville market has its own unique dynamics, but tracking the bigger picture helps me help you find the right home at the right moment.

Ontario Condo Closings Face Value Gap | Oakville Real Estate for Buyers, Sellers and Move-up Families. Feras Riyal, Broker | Royal LePage Pinnacle | 647-383-7111
Lately, I've been watching the Ontario condo market closely—and it's tough seeing some buyers caught in a value gap at closing. Some purchasers are discovering their new condo is appraising up to 30% below what they agreed to pay. That means banks are only willing to finance the current, lower value, leaving buyers to scramble for extra funds just to close.

This isn't just a paperwork issue. Long waits between signing and closing—thanks to pre-sales, permits, and even labor shortages—have given the market time to shift, sometimes not in buyers' favor. It reminds me how important it is to read the fine print: most contracts offer only a 10-day cooling-off period or an exit if the builder misses the occupancy date. Otherwise, options are limited.

As someone who's spent a decade guiding move-up buyers in Oakville, I always tell my clients that timing and detail matter. Every market has its quirks, and I believe real estate should feel straightforward, not stressful. If you’re weighing your next move, especially in a market as unpredictable as this, having someone who knows the ins and outs can make all the difference.

Ontario HST Rebates Boost New Home Sales | Oakville Real Estate for Buyers, Sellers and Move-up Families. Feras Riyal, Broker | Royal LePage Pinnacle | 647-383-7111
I've seen firsthand how affordability challenges shape decisions for buyers here in Oakville. Ontario’s temporary HST relief for new homes was a step in the right direction—many in the industry pointed out that lowering taxes can make a real difference in confidence, affordability, and sales activity. But the truth is, short-term programs don’t always help enough, especially when builders are already dealing with rising material and labour costs, lengthy approval processes, and extra fees that add up fast. Delays in rolling out the HST relief meant that both buyers and builders were left waiting, which slowed things down even more while the market stayed quiet. Highrise condo projects, in particular, struggle with these short-term measures because their timelines stretch for years. The long-term vision? Permanent HST relief, ideally removing the tax on new homes, would give us the push needed to help reach Ontario’s goal of 1.5 million new homes by 2031. Having guided many families through their next move, I’ve seen how policy shifts—big and small—can ripple through the market and impact real people. Making real estate feel straightforward is always my aim, and keeping an eye on these changes is a big part of it.

New registration requirements for newly built homes in Ontario
For those considering a newly built home in Ontario, there’s an important update you should know: starting January 1, 2027, all purchase agreements for new homes must be registered within 45 days. This step is part of Ontario’s home warranty program and is designed to ensure builder licenses can be verified and any illegal sales caught quickly. If you’re worried about timing, deposit protection will still cover buyers if there’s a delay or if the agreement isn’t registered on time. Having guided many Oakville families through the process of buying new and resale homes, I believe clarity is key—these changes are meant to make your next move a little more secure and transparent.
