🔑 What Are Tariffs, and Why Should You Care?
Tariffs are extra costs added to goods imported into Canada — including lumber, steel, appliances, and other materials used to build homes.
➡️ When tariffs go up, building costs often rise too.
➡️ Higher costs = more expensive homes.
Whether you’re a first-time buyer or planning to sell, tariffs can shape the housing market — sometimes in surprising ways!
📊 Here’s How Tariffs May Impact Vancouver’s Housing Market:
💡 What This Means for You (as a Buyer or Seller):
✅ For Buyers:
• Prices may stay elevated in some segments, but watching for slowdowns could offer opportunities.
• Move-in-ready homes might be more attractive (and competitive) due to higher renovation costs.
✅ For Sellers:
• If you’re selling a turnkey property, buyers may value it more than ever.
• With fewer new builds coming up, your resale home could stand out.
🔍 Bottom Line:
Tariffs might not be front-page news, but they quietly impact your buying and selling decisions.
