This is a discussion about five crucial real estate investment terms for 2025. Know these, understand these and utilize them!
Location remains fundamental but has evolved - investors must now consider factors like tech hubs, remote work accessibility, and infrastructure beyond just traditional metrics.
DSCR (Debt Service Coverage Ratio) is crucial for evaluating investment property viability, with 1.25 being a good benchmark to ensure sufficient income to cover mortgage payments.
Mortgage renewals will be significant in 2025, with 1.2 million Canadians facing renewal - preparation should start 4-6 months in advance to negotiate better terms.

Worst Market In Canada? Toronto Vs. Vancouver 

Canadian borrowers and investors are shifting from variable and long fixed terms toward 3-year fixed mortgages in 2026, seeking short-term certainty without locking into long rates, and how that decision ties into portfolio planning, refinancing risk, and programs like CMHC MLI Select.
Fixed (3- or 5-year) = predictable payments, easier modeling for equity/refinance and portfolio scaling.
Variable = a macro bet (rates must fall for it to be advantageous); can cause sudden payment spikes.
3-year fixed = compromise: short-term protection with flexibility if rates decline; financing programs (e.g., CMHC MLI Select) can affect timing and cost.

Fixed Or Variable Mortgage For 2026

We cover a whole bunch of breaking news in this episode. 
Construction productivity is collapsing (−37% since 2001) amid a massive retiring workforce and small‑firm dominance, constraining new supply and raising costs.
Affordability gains are concentrated in condos — not broad-based — while taxes, development charges and stalled starts (RESCON’s HST‑holiday pitch) risk deepening the supply shortfall.
Financial and market stress is rising: power‑of‑sale listings are spiking in Ontario, rental affordability is worsening regionally (Nova Scotia worst), and growing private‑credit exposure could tighten financing for builders and buyers.
