Ontario’s Path to 1.5M Homes: Bold Change Needed

Ontario has set an ambitious goal of building 1.5 million new homes, but recent numbers show we're falling short—housing starts dropped to 65,400, down from 74,600 in 2024. As someone who’s committed to supporting clients through every stage of their real estate journey, I see firsthand how fragmented zoning and building codes can slow progress. There’s a growing push for streamlined regulations and more flexible standards to help keep new housing developments moving forward. Navigating these changes is complex, but staying informed is key to finding the right path in a shifting market.
