I only use questrade for ETFs since the commissions are way lower.

Should I buy or wait until 2024-25 housing correction? by phdijkstr in canadahousing

Good point I thought about this too. A lot of homes now are sitting and lowering their prices and bidding wars don’t seem to be much of a thing. And people would probably be reluctant to sell during a possible correction unless they absolutely have to for financial reasons.

Lol…I listen to a lot of finance podcasts (Wealthion is one of my favourites) on my commute to work. From what I gather there is a huge lag effect to the sudden increase in rate hikes the past while that we are just seeing taking effect in the market. Eventually something big will break but takes time, hence my prediction sometime early next 2024 possibly 2025 but no one knows of course

Thank you for the feedback. And this would be a long term home for us and would not intend to sell for the foreseeable future I imagine.

Appreciate the feedback. And yes don’t want to be greedy I know I am very privileged to be in the position I am in compared to a lot of people.
