Budget 2025 Falls Short on Housing Affordability

Canada just dropped Budget 2025 and if you're in real estate, this might sting.

The Ottawa Real Estate Board is already calling it out for falling way short on housing

affordability. While the feds are throwing 13 billion dollars at their Build Canada Homes

initiative over five years, experts say it barely scratches the surface for renters and

first-time buyers dealing with sky-high prices right now. The budget is packed with tax tweaks

and transfer pricing changes, but when it comes to making homeownership actually accessible

in cities like Ottawa, it's basically crickets. If you were hoping this would fix the housing crisis,

you might want to look elsewhere.
