Canada in 2023 is closing its doors to foreign investors who want to purchase homes.

A new Canadian law took effect January 1 that essentially bans foreign buyers from buying residential properties as investments for two years. The law was passed because of a spike in Canadian home prices since the start of the pandemic – and some politicians’ beliefs that foreign buyers were responsible by snapping up supply of homes as investments.

’s price index is still up 38% from the end of 2019, before the pandemic, but the group said that inventory of homes for sales has returned to pre-pandemic levels. The real estate association voiced concern about the law, even with the exemptions for people who intend to move to Canada. “Canada has built a reputation as a multicultural nation that welcomes people from around the world.

also expressed concern that the ban could prompt retaliation by the United States and Mexico to prohibit purchases in those countries by Canadians, especially retirees looking for winter homes away from the Canadian winter. “Canadians purchase vacation and residential properties in many countries, but particularly in the United States,” said the group.

said Canadians are the largest foreign purchasers of American properties, with more than half of the properties purchased by Canadians in Florida and Arizona. “These provide Canadians with a place to spend the winter months and are a form of savings for Canadian retirees,” said the group. “If Canada places a ban on Americans owning property in Canada, we should expect them to respond in kind.”

Other countries should do this before it’s too late.

Build more…

95% of the Canadian market is domestic, this unfortunately won't solve the real issue which is lack of housing. Canada had 400K+ new immigrants last year and this year is targeting 500K+ but only 250K or so new houses are built every year. Canada only has a few livable cities.

surfcityphoto Good I think that's a great idea

It’s a little late……

Mohammad Broghani and Mohammad Ghobadlou have been moved to solitary confinement . Their lives are in serious danger. MohammadBroghani MohammadGhobadlou

URGENT: MohammadGhobadlou, 22 year old Iranian protestor, is on the verge of being executed by Khamenei’s regime (as early as tomo morning). He’s been charged for “waging war against God” & reports reveal he’s been tortured in prison. Be MohammadGhobadlou’s voice!

MohammadGhobadlou and MohammadBroghani were transfered to solitary confinement in RajaeiShahr prison an hour ago to execute the death sentence

Canadians weren't and aren't immune to prejudice. They just don't want to be on the receiving end of the inequity and hatred they're expressing to others. You cannot be angry with all Canadians because it's not all Canadians that are promoting these hates and prejudices. equal1s

Mexico had a foreign investor policy. They scrapped it and since then droves of rich Americans have been buying all the real estate, turning their investments into lodging for ultra wealthy tenants. The 900$ pre pandemic monthly rent for a one bedroom place is now 2500$-3000$

They are also opening immigration, to fix their unemployment issues.

Hey CNN, look at this beautiful chart and stop reporting fake news about Tesla!

URGENT! MohammadGhobadlou & MohammadBoroughani have been transferred to solitary confinement & are at serious risk of being executed in the coming hours. We must do everything in our power to prevent these executions! IranRevoIution mahsaami̇ni̇

Forgot to add the word 'some' to this tweet.

SpeakerPelosi, RepJeffries, SenWarren, PattyMurray, SenatorCantwell, RepKatiePorter - this needs to happen here. My neighborhood is 3 years old. My street has 20 houses on it. During COVID people left and now of those 20 houses, half are owned by investment companies.

When are they closing it?

Just residential homes or any kind of real estate investment?

“We need a Free market…… but not for me!!!”

The Islamic Republic of Iran is an environmental terrorist regime. Children and people are dying in Tehran and the regime keeps burning mazut to pollute the air. Where is the UN? Isn’t this a human right violation? مهسا_امینی MajidrezaRahnavard IranRevoIution

While opening its doors to a half million immigrants per year

First thanks for using term Foreign Investors Many Loopholes Like, investors will try to get funds through known residents, citizens or matter of fact their Real Estate or Developers directly. Mystery of catching those funds is the job of agencies which we hope will be enforced

The U.S. needs to do the same, most of California is owned by Chinese and Russians. The Chinese are buying farms too

The situation in Semirom is concerning. After last night's protests, the Islamic Republic has sent hundreds of its forces to suppress the people and the internet is either cut off or weak. They are arresting many people including some family members of November 22 martys. *

A few hours ago, IRGC forces have been searching houses and arresting citizens in Javanrud. More than fifty patrols of IRGC have been stationed in Javanroud streets and the doors and windows of some citizens' houses have been broken by these forces.* MahsaAmini IranRevolution

IRGC invaded people’s homes in Javanrud to arrest people. Regime mercenaries with more than 50 cars have kidnapped more than 30 youths with more than 50 cars at 3:00 am on Tuesday, January 2. MahsaAmini IranRevolution *

While at the same time, opens its doors fully, to Foreign Interference from China, and the WorldEconomicForum. More than half of Canadian Government are Foreign Inserts, deploying Agenda2030 with a fucking vengeance. TrudeauForTreason ☠️🇨🇦

Fake news. There’s $10k fine which is nothing as most properties are million to go. Unfortunately we are owned by China (they even have Chinese state police in Toronto/Ontario)

Covid 19 was a push back an a banned to foreigners for all.

Well im bet mostly from the Asian country right ?

W. homes are for people to live in, not for corporations to profit off of

DO THIS WITH THE US

This makes sense! Thailand only allows citizens to purchase land or property. Foreigners can only lease. America needs to do the same to stop China from buying up our farmland.

They use shell corps, half of my small city in Canada is bought up by the Chinese this way.

Правилно. Домът е за живеене, а не инвестиция за спекулативна печалба.

That's XENOPHOBIC 🤬

MehdiMohammadiFard, an 18 y/o from Sari was arrested on Sep30. He's been accused of Muharebe and Corruption on earth and is sentenced with double execution. They tortured him so he confessed to burning an officer's Kiosk. His life's in danger. IranRevolution

20 years too late

I wish California would do this

Like Americans?

POTUS

Let’s do this in the U.S., please.

who would buy inflated properties?

Where chinese appeared, prices akyrocketed multiple folds, causing economic disaster for the young generations. They should only be able to get their own apartments after they have been legally settled. Otherwise, OUT.

At where

The US should follow suit

This can lead to loose in foreign currency and the decline in Canadian dollar price.

Good!! They should make the change permanent instead of just for two years.

This is common in many countries. First you need to become a legal resident of the country before purchasing property.

U.K. should do this. Too many empty homes.

Good

To invest in Canada is a sure thing. Canada is not Tesla stock. It works because the money stays here. Summer home, fine.

Please the US needs to do this also!

CREA_ACI so you are saying that Canadians are driving up the home prices in the US? 🤔 The US needs a law like this, US homes for US citizens and residents.

If we did that in America how many canadians amd american would be crying some type of '-ism'

Everyone with the slightest knowledge of this subject knows it’s not Americans that Canada is trying to stop buying our houses. I was lucky enough to buy in 2009 but every house in my area lately has sold to one very particular group of people that are driving prices up.

Then the people who rejected my dreams started to believe them even the people with many followers started to believe in my dreams, as well as the ones who stopped others from believing my dreams. MuhammadQasimDreams

Seems racist

Build more homes. Problem fixed.

' some '

Aren't plenty of Canadians buying properties in Florida/Mexico and South America? Do they not realise they are causing the same problem in other countries?

Finally!!

MehdiMohammadiFard , 18 y/o, was arrested by the security forces of the IR regime in Noshahr, Iran. He has been sentenced to death twice, on charges of 'Corruption on Earth' and 'Moharabe: waging a war against God..Please be his voice MahsaAmini

announce a bounty on Putin's head... a dead putler is a good putin ✊

Settler colonist country doing racism? No way that’s crazy.

We should do the same we let China and other foreign countries to buy housing and farmland and prohibited in their countries

Sorry, guys. It’s more performative AML baby measures.

I just squat now, they actually pay me to leave!

Nobody would 'close its doors to investors' when you are about to buy fundamental altcoins or at least that outdated bitcoin
