Shownotes

Ottawa home prices and new listings are both up at the same time, and that combination is telling two very different stories depending on which side of the market you are on.

In this episode, we break down the latest real estate numbers, what rising interest rates and global oil prices are doing to everyday affordability in Canada, and why the next five years in the housing market may look nothing like the last five. We also get into AI and tokenized investments and what those shifts could mean for how Canadians build wealth going forward.
