But the firm predicts the looming slowdown will not be a ‘blow-out’ like the 2008-2012 crash. The industry instead is likely to experience a prolonged but shallow downturn rather than a hard landing in the face of present economic headwinds as the demand-side proves more resilient than the past. In its Autumn market and tender forecast, entitled ‘Energy Sapping’, Arcadis warns the overall picture of inflationary pressure shows no signs of easing, with material price increases continuin...

The likelihood of the Bank of Canada’s desired “Goldilocks” outcome of a soft landing for Canada’s economy is growing dimmer, according to a new report from RBC. The report is based on recent research from BIS, which suggest “front-loaded” tightening cycles, such as the one being undertaken by the BoC, “tend to be followed more frequently by soft landings.” But that may not hold true this time, RBC argues. “With policymakers pledging to do what it takes to rein in inflation, ...

As it becomes clear that home sales and prices in the Greater Toronto Area (GTA) are declining, industry professionals are trying to figure out what lies ahead. How severe and how long will the decline be? Will it be a “soft landing” for the high-flying housing market or a “hard landing” that will resemble the one that happened in 1989? It is worth remembering (see chart below) that after 1989, home prices kept declining for seven long years and lost roughly 30% of their value during th...

Early pandemic fears that brick-and-mortar retail would not live to see the next decade look to be largely unfounded. Shopping centers remain a sound investment for private firms and large institutional investors alike, as evidenced by new numbers suggesting that retail acquisition surged to nearly $82 billion last year, a figure up 24% from the pre-pandemic levels of 2019.

Imagine you’re a website that has pulled out all the stops and gone to a lot of trouble to be found. You’ve ensured that you’ve got an easy-to-remember, intuitive URL. Your home page makes clear that you were made by an awesome real estate agent with an attractive value proposition. You’ve got sexy graphics full of color, but you insist on remaining tasteful.
