The Missing Middle with Mike Moffatt and Cara Stern
Are Landlords Greedier Than They Used to Be?
Here at the Missing Middle, we get a lot of great listener questions. In this episode, we answer one about whether landlords' expectations play a role in unaffordable rental prices.
The conversation discusses the challenges faced by millennials and younger generations in Canada when it comes to homeownership and starting a family. It explores the increasing cost of housing, the shift in market behavior by investors, and the impact of policy changes on the rental market. The conversation also touches on the cultural shift in expectations of landlords and the difficulty of affording a down payment.
