While transaction volumes were low in ’24, the second lowest in the past decade, due to a lack of available product and financing, asset values have decreased across all sectors.

But there are still many paths to tread in the hunt for alpha in the Canadian markets.

In addition, supply is expected to be substantial across the country next year.

But this situation is not playing out evenly across property types and geographies.
