It expects prices to increase 6.2% in 2022 (down from 17.8% in 2021) and said the increase would be \u201ceven slower in 2023 with most markets returning to better balance.\u201d<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Before any of that can happen, there needs to be more supply.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">\u201cThe supply side will continue to be crucial to Canada\u2019s housing story,\u201d the report reads. \u201cSo far in the pandemic, supply has been dwarfed by supercharged demand. Inventories of homes for sale have plummeted to historical lows as a result, leaving few options for buyers. We estimate the Canadian market was short 180,000 to 250,000 listings at the end of 2021. To reach a better balance, with exceptionally strong demand, active listings would need to at least triple.\u201d<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><strong>Bidding Wars<\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The report said bidding wars will continue in 2022 as buyers scramble to get in on markets across the country. It also expects the number of immigrants looking to buy in large urban areas \u2013 Toronto, Montreal and Vancouver \u2013 to intensify.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Meanwhile, the report says new construction will add far more inventory to the market than in the past.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">\u201cThere\u2019s reason to believe 2022 will finally be the year more supply makes its way to market. Housing starts have surged in the last year, reaching levels unseen since the mid-1970s. Some of those units have recently been completed and barring prolonged construction delays (supply chain bottlenecks and labour shortages pose significant challenges), we expect builders to boost completions materially in 2022 to nearly 250,000 units.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">This would be up significantly from an average of 190,000 units annually over the past five years. The increase is unlikely to fully address the supply shortage on its own. But alongside calmer demand, we believe it will noticeably reduce the imbalance.\u201d<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.livabl.com\/2022\/01\/housing-markets-fever-will-break-2022.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">How The Housing Market&#8217;s &#8220;Fever&#8221; will Break in 2022<\/a> by Livabl<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The \u201cfever\u201d in Canada\u2019s housing market will break in 2022, but don\u2019t expect things to come crashing to the ground.
