flag Canadian first-time buyers hesitate despite lower prices and rates, with only 13% planning to buy soon.

flag First-time homebuyers in Canada show renewed interest in homeownership due to lower prices and declining interest rates, yet most are delaying purchases despite favorable conditions. flag A Royal LePage survey reveals only 13% plan to buy within two years, with many taking time to research and adjust expectations by considering smaller homes or locations farther from city centers. flag While 53% aim for a 20% down payment, 39% need mortgage insurance, and family financial support is common. flag Condo markets are cooling amid rising inventories and investor strain. flag In contrast, UK buyers are acting faster, with the median time from browsing to purchase dropping to 5.8 months in 2024–2025, driven by improved readiness and shifting market conditions.
