Key Points

  • Despite a 4% increase in housing starts in Canada's largest cities, the supply still lags behind the demands of a rapidly growing population.
  • Ontario's Bill 23 and other regional measures aim to alleviate the housing crisis, yet some areas like Toronto have seen a decline in housing starts.
  • Croatia's real estate market is booming, driven by international interest, particularly from Canadian investors, due to favorable investment conditions and EU membership benefits.
