"The Bottom Line: Any worry about a hard landing in Canadian housing has quickly become a faint memory, and underlying conditions are more balanced than the flashy headline results suggest. Softer activity through the fall should keep price growth (and Bank of Canada concerns) in check." -BMO Capital Markets http://www.bmonesbittburns.com//e/20131015a/econofacts.pdf

Sorry to inform you, but The Great Real Estate Crash of 2011no2012no2013 has been postponed..." ~ BMO. http://ow.ly/m7j1z

We did it again! Paradigm was ranked by PROFIT Magazine as one of the Fastest-Growing Companies in Canada. Thanks to all of our employees, business partners, and suppliers for helping us achieve this wonderful accomplishment. http://ow.ly/lFatb

Its official: Canadian home prices are boring (and thats a good thing). - BMO http://ow.ly/k4OB5

The Bears will be out in full force today. But good news for mortgage rates. While the number itself was surprising, many expected a pullback eventually, to bring employment more in line with our economic performance. "On a 6-month moving average basis, the Canadian economy has created an modest 12,000 jobs per month- which is now more consistent with the economic backdrop..." TD http://ow.ly/jMmmY

"Factories, hockey players and realtors fuelled Canadas tepid growth" - FP. Canadians apparently missed hockey. http://ow.ly/jyy8f

"confidence in the housing mkt is still high & young Cdns are the bright spot as they look to buy their 1st home" - RBC http://ow.ly/jqkCG

Budget praise: "..relative to other large Aaa-rated sovereigns, Canadas debt position will remain favorable." - Moodys http://ow.ly/jkgaB

Its a question many are pondering... prospective first-time homebuyers reading news headlines for three years claiming a housing bubble will "soon burst" are close to being priced out of the market. Will this push them to pull the trigger on buying a home? Throw in a mortgage rate war and this springs housing market could be very active. http://ow.ly/iKit8

Till property taxes do us part: A loophole in a new property tax in China has couples divorcing in order to save thousands of dollars when selling their properties. They are re-marrying after the sale. http://ow.ly/irQLz

CIBCs Benjamin Tal cites "bubble fatigue" may be setting in for housing purchasers and buyers. Theyve been hearing about a so-called housing crash for so long now... Throw in low mortgage rates and competition with lenders and this may very well prop up the spring market. http://ow.ly/1T8r7I

We have some news... Official Press Release tomorrow morning.

CMHC expects house prices to climb. Not surprising... mtg rates to remain ultra-low AND listings are lower. http://ow.ly/hXlg0

CAN inflation rate fell in Jan, in line with econ. predictions. Low mortgage rates should continue for some time. http://ow.ly/1SFzgI

RE Market appears to be pulling off an "orderly retreat", not the big crash that makes for news headlines. On the single-family front, average prices are actually up 4.3 per cent year-on-year and that would not be the case if the market was in some radical excess supply situation... In other words, sellers dont need to sell, keeping the overall market balanced. http://ow.ly/hC6Ff

Canadas economy grew faster than expected in Nov... This wont help relieve margin pressure on mortgage rates. http://ow.ly/hiUue

With 5 yr GOC bond yields pushing through 1.50, one has to wonder how long lenders will wait until they start increasing 5 year mortgage rates. http://www.investing.com/rates-bon/canada-5-year-bond-yield

With the BOC today suggesting rate hikes are "less imminent", get ready for a new round of warnings about Canadian household debt. The BOCs hands are tied in terms of monetary policy, so their members are reduced to warnings through the media.
