Troubles within the development industry - reverberate and impact all of us.

BURLINGTON, ON

There are tough times all around – and the development industry is hurting like many others.

The number of developments that have been put on hold; facing foreclosure by their lenders or being sold to a group that can complete what someone else started is quite long.

These financial bumps impact people looking to buy property – there is still a lot of speculation in the small-unit condo market. Money to be made for sure – but the speculation isn’t helping people who need housing with two and three-bedroom homes – with a decent park reasonably close.

Storey, an online news source focused on the development industry provides the details.

It’s been a hot minute since we heard anything about The One. But it turns out no news doesn’t mean good news, as the latest buzz is about a potential lawsuit that’s been brewing and could end up halting construction.

- - - New data shows that 2024 has not been a particularly productive year for homebuilding in Ontario. Unfortunately, the same can also be said for the past six years. The Gazette reported on this earlier in the week

Three years after the condo project was first placed under receivership, a buyer has been found for Central Park Ajax, bringing an end to a saga that included legal action involving the Town.

Meanwhile, Chacon Developments is facing a quadruple-whammy, including two receiverships and two powers of sale over properties in Brampton and Caledon.

On a brighter note, leading purpose-built rental developer Fitzrovia has dipped into a new $1.1-billion fund to acquire the rights to redevelop a 24-storey office building in midtown Toronto.

In a move that’s being applauded by industry stakeholders, the City of Vaughan has slashed their sky-high DCs. In particular, charges on low-rise residential have been decreased by over $44,000.

You’ve probably heard of office-to-residential conversions, but have you heard of prison-to-residential conversions? That’s a separate story.

By the numbers:

This week’s real estate news, according to the numbers.

240,761
—
The number of housing starts in October, marking an 8% annual rise. Even so, starts remain “well below” what is needed to restore affordability in Canada’s urban centres.

2%
—
The year-over-year rise in the Consumer Price Index in October – a “minor setback” for the BoC and future rate cuts, but not enough to completely derail the chance of a 50-bps cut in December.

$1.8B
—
The investment sales volume of multi-suite rental properties in the third quarter, marking the highest quarterly total since the first quarter of 2022.

35%
—
The percentage of Canadian renters searching for more than two weeks for their rental as of November, down from 57% as of March.

60%
—
The year-over-year decline in GTA new home sales in October, with 765 transactions recorded.

624 Acres
—
The size of a Greenbelt property in Caledon that Ontario students are being invited to submit creative design concepts for as part of a $100,000 competition.

QUOTE OF THE WEEK

CIBC Economist Katherine Judge had this to say about the economy: “Although this report will be a disappointment for the Bank of Canada, it follows a string of reports that showed more progress than expected. While that makes the December meeting a closer call in terms of a 25bp or 50bp cut, the slack in the Canadian economy that we expect to be confirmed in upcoming labour market and GDP reports has us retaining our call for a 50bp cut in December for now.”

Ontario manufacturing down 9% from May 2023 peak, led by auto and steel

By Tom Parkin

November 20^th, 2024

BURLINGTON, ON

Manufacturing jobs are down 13,000 from June 2018, Trump election adds uncertainty to massive public EV supply chain investments, premier focusing voters on bike lanes

Manufacturing shipments haven’t been lower since January 2022.

Ontario manufacturing shipments continued their decline in September, falling to $30.1 billion, according to seasonally adjusted data from Statistics Canada released Friday.

From a peak of $33.4 billion in May, 2023, Ontario manufacturing shipments are down $2.9 billion, or 8.9 per cent.

Manufacturing is important to Ontario’s export-driven economic growth. Shipments haven’t been lower since January 2022.

Auto and steel lead manufacturing decline

The biggest hit has come in the auto industry. Motor vehicle manufacturing is down 27 per cent from a $5.4 billion peak in July 2023 to $4.0 billion in September.

Auto parts manufacturing has fallen 16 per cent, from a $3.1 billion peak in July 2023 to $2.6 billion in September 2024.

Canada was the world’s sixteenth-largest steel producer, by volume

Steel manufacturing has also recently tumbled, falling 34 per cent from a peak of $1.5 billion in June 2022 to $970 million in September 2024. However, steel remains higher than in more of the 20 years before the 2022 peak (see chart, below).

Canada was the world’s sixteenth largest steel producer, by volume, in 2023 and the fourteenth largest vehicle manufacturer in 2022. according to international industry associations.

Trump’s impact on Ontario EV investments unclear

Ontario has lost over 13,000 manufacturing jobs since the June 2018 election, when premier Doug Ford gave a “guarantee” he’d create 300,000 manufacturing jobs.

And now the sector, and the billions of public dollars spent rebuilding auto supply chains around electric vehicle production, faces more uncertainty due to the re-election of US President Trump, who opposed EV purchase incentives during his campaign.

Some have argued the influence of Elon Musk, owner of EV manufacturer Tesla, could cause Trump to reverse course and keep EV incentives. But others believe ending the incentive plan would help Tesla, already profitable, secure dominance over the American EV market by increasing the investment required by his EV competitors to reach profitability.

Telsa share price is up 60 per cent

However the situation turns, investors are betting Tesla will come out a winner. Telsa share price is up 60 per cent since Labour Day, rising from $210 USD on September 3, 2024 to $336 USD yesterday.

None of Canada’s EV battery production appears to be currently tied into Tesla’s supply chain. Tesla’s biggest battery partner, South Korea’s LG, has received billions to set up production in Ontario. But the protect is in partnership with Stellantis, owner of big car brands Chrysler, Dodge, Jeep, Fiat, Alfa Romeo, Maserati, Renault, Citroën, Peugeot and others competitors to Tesla.

Ontario premier focusing attention elsewhere

Ontario’s manufacturing decline and new uncertainty comes as the province’s approach to housing fails to spur construction starts, costing jobs and increasing the costs for renters and house-seekers.

Retail sales are below a 2022 peak, the average wage has fallen the last two months and unemployment has been higher than the national rate for most of the past five years.

Bicycle lanes Ford wants to remove from some Toronto streets.

On each metric, Ontario is heading in a different, and worse, direction than the rest of Canada.

While economic clouds continue to gather over Ontario, the province’s premier appears to believe he will win a third term by misdirecting voters onto controversy he has created about removing bicycle lanes from some Toronto streets.

How much housing failure can Ontario's economy endure?

By Tom Parkin

November 19^th, 2024

BURLINGTON, ON

OPINION

So many Ontario economic indicators are pointing down, and the failure to build housing could be the key to understanding why

Month after month the Ontario PC ‘s approach has absolutely failed to spur housing construction, and October was no different, according to data released by the Canada Mortgage and Housing Corporation this morning.

There were under 5,500 Ontario housing starts last month.

There were under 5,500 Ontario housing starts last month. That’s only 44 per cent of the 12,500 per month pace needed to meet to hit the target of 1.5 million units by 2031 set by the Housing Affordability Task Force and accepted by the Ford PC government.

Housing data can bounce around month to month. But this isn’t statistical noise. Mark up a big F for fail because in four of the last five months Ontario housing starts have been less than 50 per cent of target. This government hasn’t hit a single target since they adopted them in June, 2022.

Twenty-nine months later, 211,980 new units have been started, 150,520 homes less than needed. The shortage that has been added by this government is enough to housing perhaps 300,000 to 500,000 people — a significant-sized city.

Broader economic impacts going unexamined

Housing scarcity increases renting and buying prices. It costs jobs in the residential construction industry. In May, Data Shows research showed BC’s big housing push was paying off with jobs and paycheques while Ontario slumped.

But there seems to be almost zero media attention on how this self-inflicted housing crisis hurts Ontario’s broader economy.

There is occasional acknowledgement that while Ford’s policies aren’t building much housing, they are spurring the growth of tent cities. Workers who can’t pay for a home become homeless. And for those unable to work because of disability, living on under $16,500 a year on Ontario Disability Support Program, the housing crisis is a complete catastrophe.

But with the asking price of a Toronto one bedroom apartment now at almost $2,400 a month or nearly $30,000 a year, it’s not just those relying on social assistance who can’t make ends meet. A worker earning $25 an hour and working 40 hours a week takes home just over $40,000 a year after source deductions.

Rising costs means an increasing number of people have nothing left after paying for food and rent. The rising housing crisis has combined with food inflation to become a general affordability crisis for many. And when fewer people have money to spend, it’s a problem for everyone, not just a few.

Consumer spending drives the economy, particularly the services sector. In most developed economies, consumer spending generates about two-thirds of GDP.

Ontario’s affordability crisis goes a long way to explaining why August retail sales in Ontario were lower than May 2022 though, outside Ontario, they are at a new peak.

Low consumer spending drags down everything else. Ontario’s unemployment rate is worse than the national rate. Ontario’s average wage is falling while rising elsewhere. Unionization is in decline.

There’s only so much housing failure an economy can survive. There’s only so much economic failure a good society can survive.

Fixing Ontario’s economic challenges not the priority

Added to the retail sales problem, the province’s manufacturing is declining, affecting jobs and reducing income from export sales (Data Shows will take a closer look at sales data tomorrow).

But despite these overlapping challenges, the top priority of a premier elected to “get it done” on housing and jobs is ripping up bicycle lanes in downtown Toronto.

Residential Housing Construction Predicted to Decease at a Time When it is Desperately Needed

By Staff

November 12th, 2024

BURLINGTON, ON

According to the Residential Construction Council of Ontario, (RESCON) housing starts over the next few years will likely weaken and the already-dire supply shortage could get even worse

RESCON represents new home builders.

The report also indicates that employment in new residential construction has peaked and will probably fall quite a lot in the years ahead. The scenario is worrying as many people rely on the industry for employment and there could be significant economic repercussions.

RESCON report indicates that employment in new residential construction has peaked.

The report, titled Housing Market Outlooks in Ontario, was prepared for RESCON by a Toronto-based economic research firm led by Will Dunning who has been analyzing housing markets for more than 40 years for clients in the private, public and not-for-profit sectors. It provides an overview of the housing market and develops forecasts covering 2024 to 2028 for Ontario, as well as municipalities in the Census Metropolitan Areas of Toronto, Hamilton and Oshawa.

The report provides two sets of scenarios. In both, a further weakening of employment and new housing starts continues well into 2025, followed by a slow recovery of the economy and housing activity from 2026 to 2028. By the end of 2028, conditions will not have fully recovered.

“The findings of this report are particularly worrisome for builders as they point to a weakening residential construction market at the very time we need to build more housing,” explains RESCON president Richard Lyall. “Equally concerning, the outlook envisions a scenario whereby reduction in residential construction employment and job losses in associated industries could become a second substantive issue weighing on the broader economy.

“With a critical need for new housing, it is imperative that all levels of government take immediate action to boost construction by lowering the taxes, fees and levies and reducing the red tape and bureaucracy which slows the industry and adds to the cost of housing. To spur the market, we need conditions that allow builders to build houses that people can afford. Otherwise, we may be in dire straits as new home construction stalls and unemployment in the industry rises.”

The report notes that housing price increases have largely been absorbed by hikes in land values and government-imposed costs such as development charges. Due to the higher costs, the viability of building new low-rise housing, in particular, does not make financial sense.

Removing government-imposed costs from the prices of new homes would impact prices. In the GTA, the average municipal charge for new homes is $164,920 – about $42,000 higher than in 2022. For apartments, the current figure is $122,387 – about $32,000 higher than in 2022. The costs of delays in approvals varies by municipality within the GTA from $2,672 to $5,576 per month. When applied to the typical delay period, it can add $43,000 to $90,000 per unit.

RESCON: The viability of building new low-rise housing, in particular, does not make financial sense.

For new home sales to recover, the report notes that affordability needs to be returned to prior levels via a combination of interest rate decreases and reduction in government-imposed costs and land prices, although both scenarios seem unlikely to happen. The report cites other factors that need to be addressed, such as delays in land use approvals and infrastructure, the amount of developable land available for purchase by builders, and escalation of mortgage regulations which have reduced mortgage amounts that can be obtained by buyers.

“The bottom line is that all governments need to get their act together and work in unison to tackle the problems that are affecting construction of new homes,” adds Lyall. “Governments have made some inroads and the recent plan floated by the federal Conservatives to remove the sales taxes on new housing sold for under $1 million is a good start. We hope the province follows suit, and we need to reduce the bureaucracy associated with getting new homes built. If we don’t take these steps the consequences could be catastrophic for our industry and the economy.”

Burlington's alternative wellness market experiences significant growth

By Gabriela Pelayes

November 12th, 2024

BURLINGTON, ON

A remarkable transformation is occurring in Burlington’s mental health and wellness landscape. Like a garden in spring, new natural wellness businesses focused on mental health solutions are blooming everywhere. Burlington is experiencing substantial growth in mental health and alternative wellness establishments, as more residents seek natural approaches to managing conditions like anxiety, PTSD and depression.

This evolution reflects broader changes across North America, where alternative mental health solutions are becoming increasingly mainstream. The mental wellness market continues to expand rapidly across the continent. Local entrepreneurs are responding by offering innovative solutions, including opportunities to buy blue meanies and other natural wellness products.

Market dynamics and consumer trends

There has been a clear shift in mental health consumer behaviour in Burlington. Visits to mental wellness establishments have increased substantially compared to previous years. Modern consumers are particularly thorough in their research before choosing health solutions and deciding where to
buy blue meanies for their wellness needs. Local businesses have evolved into educational resources, helping guide those seeking natural solutions for anxiety, ADHD and cognitive enhancement.

The demographic seeking alternative solutions has expanded significantly, now encompassing professionals, seniors, and younger adults alike. This diversification has led to specialised product offerings and personalised wellness programs. Local centres report that first-time visitors often become regular clients, with customer retention rates exceeding 70%. Educational workshops and community outreach programs have played a crucial role in building trust and awareness among different consumer segments.

Product diversity and quality standards

Burlington’s mental wellness marketplace has developed into a sophisticated network of natural healing options. Quality assurance has become paramount, with third-party testing now standard practice. Most Burlington’s retailers, including those where you can buy blue meanies, maintain strict quality control through independent laboratory verification.

Economic impact and community benefits

The mental wellness sector’s growth has created significant economic benefits for Burlington. Health and wellness businesses have made substantial contributions to the local economy, creating numerous new jobs in mental health support services. The sector generates considerable economic activity throughout the community, supporting overall growth and development.

Future market projections

The outlook for Burlington’s mental health and wellness sector remains promising. The industry continues to show strong growth potential, with particular expansion expected in natural remedies and mental health support services. Local business groups are fostering this growth through targeted initiatives and community programs, ensuring sustainable development that benefits both providers and those seeking mental health support.

Professional remediation companies use special techniques to effectively remove mold particles, ensuring a safe and healthy environment for you and your family.
