With the introduction of this program coming next year, this is also not an immediate quick fix for today\u2019s competitive market conditions.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/lh6.googleusercontent.com\/3jZ1j3Xw4vjejINAqBgJGWAY5art8FVLrNVEw6pC3cG4x7rX6fogkAgBgk00TY_5QraGiUb33EAnNajG4XAjKJj1kGC4SKIr0U0724s3cxdbHriA-hy2wni_OKbtj6cs5EoUI5Hu\" alt=\"\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Source: <a href=\"http:\/\/crea\/\"><span style=\"color:#4695c4\" class=\"has-inline-color\">https:\/\/creastats.crea.ca\/en-CA\/<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Foreign buyers not welcome here, at least for the next two years<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Like many provincial jurisdictions, Ottawa is taking aim at the foreign buyers by limiting speculation through a proposed two-year ban on purchases of <a href=\"https:\/\/www.zoocasa.com\/blog\/federal-government-budet-april-2022\/\">residential<\/a> real estate by people and companies who aren&#8217;t citizens or permanent residents.&nbsp; Minister Freeland also outlined the enforcement of tax on \u201cflippers\u201d or anyone buying or selling a property within a year to be fully taxed on their profits.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li><strong><span class=\"has-inline-color has-very-dark-gray-color\">Read: <\/span><\/strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.zoocasa.com\/blog\/boc-march-2022\/\"><span style=\"color:#4695c4\" class=\"has-inline-color\"><strong>The Bank of Canada Raises Rates: What You Need to Know<\/strong><\/span><\/a><\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Any immediate cooling effects<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Many are encouraged that more levels of government, including the Federal level, are attempting to tackle the sky-high housing prices and lack of available inventory.&nbsp; However, for those facing acute issues right now with inflation, saving and supply in key markets, it makes it difficult to have a significant impact in the short term.&nbsp; Analysts are now expecting rising interest rates to have the most immediate effect on slowing the price growth in most major markets across the country.&nbsp; The Bank of Canada is expected to announce additional rate hikes next week.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">To speak with an experienced real estate agent in your local markets and learn more about your options as first time home buyers and sellers, contact us now.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"cta\">\n<div class=\"cta-left\">\n<div class=\"cta-title\">Considering Getting Into The Market This Spring?<\/div>\n<div class=\"cta-body\">Sign Up for a Free Buyer Consultation<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"cta-right\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.zoocasa.com\/buy-with-zoocasa\"><button class=\"cta-button\">Talk To Our Experts<\/button><\/a><\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>In the April 7th release of the 2022 Federal Budget, Ottawa highlighted housing affordability on page one as the primary focus of the new spending plan.
