The Globe and Mail reports in its Wednesday, Nov. 7, edition that Canada Mortgage and Housing Corp. says the country's real estate market is expected to moderate over the next two years as the growth in housing prices begins to slow to be more in line with economic fundamentals. A Canadian Press dispatch to The Globe reports that in its annual outlook released on Tuesday, CMHC forecasts housing starts and sales to both decline in 2019 and 2020. It anticipates housing starts for single and multi unit starts will fall to between 193,700 and 204,500 in 2019, while sales are expected come in between 478,400 and 497,400 units. Prices are anticipated to range from $501,400 and $521,600. CMHC economist Bob Dugan says: "Our key take away from this year's outlook is moderation in Canada's housing markets for 2019 into 2020. Housing starts are expected to decline from the higher levels we've seen recently. We expect resales in 2019 and 2020 to remain below recent peaks, while prices should reach levels that are more in line with economic fundamentals such as income, job and populations growth." CMHC expects the number of single-detached housing starts to decrease. Multi-unit starts were also expected to decline.
