BoC Holds Rates: What This Means for Real Estate #propertyinvestment #realestateinvestingcanada

The Bank of Canada held its key rate at 2.75%. While rates remain relatively low, buyer activity continues to lag.

Buyer sentiment is cautious. Trade tensions and the expectation of future rate cuts are encouraging potential homebuyers to wait. April marked the worst month for home sales in over 35 years.

The key pivot: Canada still faces a structural housing shortage. The opportunity now lies in purpose-built rental. That’s where capital is flowing — offering resilient demand, steady cash flow, and long-term value.

This is no longer a speculative market. It’s a market for disciplined, forward-looking strategy.
