Now that we have some good news on the interest rates, we need assistance from all levels of the government to address this: ~30% of taxes embedded in new construction in many cities across Canada. How can the industry bring affordable housing when the Government holds such a large piece of the pie! Thanks for sharing Mike Moffatt, PhD

SL Green Realty Corp. has posted robust quarterly results, driven by high demand for Park Avenue office spaces. Strong leasing activity along the prestigious corridor, where rents exceed $140 per square foot, contributed to these impressive results. SL Green leased a total of 421,000 square feet in the quarter ending June 30, with a notable boost from 367,000 square feet leased in the final weeks. Key leases included: Ares Management Corporation: 132,000 additional square feet at 245 Park Ave. Elliot Management Corp: 150,000 square feet at 280 Park Ave. With 90% of its 30 million square-foot portfolio in Manhattan, SL Green’s occupancy rate in the borough rose to 86.7% from 85.9% in the first quarter. The company reported $2.05 a share in second-quarter funds from operations, up from $1.43 the previous year, and raised its 2024 FFO forecast to as much as $7.75 a share.

From concept to construction, affordable homes need to be built faster. This means: ·      Bringing down the costs to build new homes, ·      Helping cities make it easier to build homes at a faster pace, ·      Changing the way Canadian homebuilders manufacture homes, and ·      Growing the workforce to ensure we get the job done. With these actions, the federal government is helping build the homes Canada needs.

How do you see this graph? To me, every market shift presents opportunities. The key question is: how will this significant reduction in new construction starts affect the delicate balance of supply and demand? New construction isn’t a quick fix—it requires time, planning, financing, and execution to meet demand. With the Bank of Canada’s next overnight rate decision just around the corner on December 11th, inflation hovering slightly above 2% might argue against a rate cut. However, when you pair that with a graph like this, showing sharp declines in construction starts, it becomes clear that a 50-basis-point cut is not just warranted, much like an election—it’s overdue.
