Spot on mate better make sure you're on the right side of the table lil fella

Gotta get municipalities to start building more homes. Like now.

Supply is so constrained right now - time on market for a house in an east bay city I grew up in averages eight days right now.

Eight.

When i was in the market in NYC people would literally stand in line for showings. Occasional informal bidding wars with the realtor while on site.

It's crazy

I'm just glad I bought my home when I did, Christ. It'll be paid off in ten years and probably double in value because of people fleeing the city. I live two hours from Toronto and home prices here are skyrocketing because people are choosing to commute so they can buy a house. Just listened to a lady being interviewed the other day on CBC - she drives five hours a day to get to work.

That is a serious problem. Not just economically, but in terms of city planning, the environment and sprawl.

Slight update: Bill to be unveiled tomorrow.

Will probably still be shit.

You guys need to buy houses elsewhere. $135,000 will get you a 3 bed 2 bath home with a garage just west of Cleveland. No waiting lines with buyers trying to outbid you either.
