Scotiabank Housing
A survey released today by Maru Public Opinion that was conducted for Scotiabank finds that more than half of Canadians (57%) believe now is a good time to buy a house due to the low interest rate environment, up nearly 20% since August 2020. In fact, the Scotiabank 2021 Housing Survey finds younger Canadians (39%) saying that the pandemic has accelerated their plans to purchase a home, which has more than doubled in just over 6 months.
