The Toronto Condo Crash Is Imminent Broadview Table Talks: Toronto Real Estate Podcast

    • Geldanlage

As we navigate these uncertain times, many are finding their pre-purchased condos aren't appraising at expected values. With the market down, you're faced with two choices. First, you could assign your property, selling your agreement to another buyer before closing. It might seem like an easy out, but with assignments stalling in the current market, finding a buyer willing to take over at a big profit is tough. Alternatively, you could close on the property, taking on monthly losses due to negative cash flow. This is a gamble, betting on the market's eventual recovery. Remember, closing means committing to years of potential financial strain unless the market swings back. The root of this dilemma? A market boom driven by low interest rates during the pandemic, leading to high purchase prices now misaligned with current values. Whatever path you choose, it's a decision weighed heavily by the market's unpredictable nature.
