In this episode, we're joined by Christopher Wein, COO of Equiton Developments, for an insightful discussion on the current state of real estate construction in Toronto. We dive into how government taxes and levies, combined with speculative investments, have led to an over-supply of the wrong types of housing—luxury condos and small units—while leaving a gap in livable spaces that are crucial for future generations of homebuyers and downsizers.Christopher shares his expertise on how we can create density in the right way, focusing on building sustainable, community-friendly housing in the right locations and neighborhoods. We also explore why Toronto’s housing crisis has been exacerbated by its failure to learn from other global cities that have tackled similar challenges.Join us for a deep dive into these pressing issues, and get a fresh perspective on what needs to change to build a more balanced and inclusive housing market. --- Follow Us: https://linktr.ee/opclub_ https://www.instagram.com/andrewbclee/ https://www.instagram.com/buypreconwithtawfiq/
