About

Welcome to a data-driven channel focused on Canadian real estate, housing economics, and artificial intelligence. I’m Daniel Foch, a real estate broker at Valery.ca, an AI-powered real estate brokerage, and the co-founder of Realist.ca. I also host The Canadian Real Estate Investor Podcast. This channel breaks down what is actually happening in Canada’s housing market using real data, economic analysis, and firsthand industry experience. Topics include Canadian housing market updates, real estate prices, mortgage rates, interest rates, inflation, unemployment, housing supply, affordability, and public policy. I cover real estate investing strategies for buyers, investors, and operators with a strong focus on macroeconomic trends. I also review AI tools for real estate, testing CRMs, automation software, content tools, valuation models, and agent workflows. Each review answers one question. Can this AI tool replace or improve a real task a realtor or investor does today?

Video Description

Canada's Rental Market Crisis: Vacancy Rates Surge as Landlords Struggle in 2025 In this video, we delve into the alarming rise in vacancy rates for purpose-built rentals across Canada in 2025, which have hit the highest levels in a decade. We analyze the factors contributing to this surge, including the increased supply of new rental units and the decline in population growth. We also discuss the impact on landlords, renters, and investors, and explore what the future holds for the rental market in 2026. Find out how landlords are offering incentives to attract tenants and why recent policy changes have led to a softer rental market nationwide.
