The Big Take Away: We DONT have a condo collpase. Its an ALL new homes collpase, of every type.
Ontario home buyers can no longer afford what it costs to build new homes. We have to get costs under control and do it yesterday. Thousands of jobs depend on this.
GOHBA has identified three priority policy actions to stimulate building and restore affordability. First is advocating for lower Development Charges to reduce costs of building and buying new homes.
