The Canadian Real Estate Investor

On September 23, StatCan revised its population count and added 301,008 people. Two of the three "decline" quarters became growth. Most of the people it found were temporary residents still in the country on pending permit extensions. Nick and Dan explain how the old count missed them, what changed in the method, and whether this weakens the bear case for housing. Growth is still the slowest since 1915, rents are soft, and more departures are likely coming. The revision changes why the numbers looked the way they did, not the market we've been living in.

Most Canadian real estate partnerships run on a handshake and good vibes. Nick and Dan break down how to do it properly. They cover five ways to structure a deal: co-ownership, general partnership, limited partnership, corporation, or skipping equity and lending instead. They explain how to pay the operator fairly with fees, a preferred return and a promote, and why your partnership agreement means nothing to your lender. They show how the right partner fills gaps in a CMHC application. And they walk through how partnerships actually fall apart: capital calls nobody can fund, plus death, divorce, disability and bankruptcy.

Mississauga and Oakville just froze new data centres. Saskatchewan rolled out the red carpet for a Bell campus near Regina worth over $50 billion. Nick and Daniel break down what these buildings are, why each province is handling them so differently, and why two out of three Canadians don't want one near their home. They take on the viral water claims and explain how the money works: tenants reserve power and pay whether they use it or not. Then they each say whether they'd invest. Plus the October 27 date that could decide whether the GTA fringe becomes a market or stays frozen.

CREA August is out and every province sold fewer homes than a year ago. Oil topped $108, which pushes fixed mortgage rates up. Carney's summit pledges and the new Mega Deduction won't lower anyone's mortgage. Sales are stuck and buyers are gaining leverage, so watch your local numbers, not the national average.
