Canada’s housing crisis isn’t just a problem—it’s an emergency. With 3.5 million homes needed by 2031, the gap between what’s being built and what’s required is widening fast. In this episode, we dive deep into six game-changing strategies governments, developers, and communities are using to speed up development proposals and get shovels in the ground—faster.

Ciao! Welcome to a new episode of Building Wealth Through Real Estate...Brick by Brick with me, Nico James-Bock, Founder of The CondoWiz™ Group and Broker at Keller Williams Co-Elevation Realty in Toronto.  

From record rental construction and modular housing innovation to bold housing start targets, tax breaks, and cutting through red tape, we unpack what’s working, what’s stalling, and how Canada can turn approvals into keys in hand. Whether you’re in real estate, construction, or just trying to understand why your dream home feels out of reach, this is the episode you can’t afford to miss.

🎯 Key Topics:

  • Why 2025 will see record completions—and why 2029 might not
  • CMHC’s ambitious housing start targets
  • How prefab homes are slashing build times
  • The incentives and tax cuts motivating developers
  • How modernized codes can speed approvals without cutting corners
