  • Superb Idea & Execution

    This is such a great format for busy agents who spend so much time in our cars! The first episode was really great with an interesting discussion topic & questions. Who doesn’t love a little “how NOT to do it.” The production values were very high - I’m impressed.

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

The Critical Path – Market outlook and understanding GVR stats with Andrew Lis
Q: What specific developments are you working on to help REALTORS better understand and use data day-to-day?
A compact, member-focused data initiative is underway: expanding the economics microsite, creating members-only access to deeper datasets, reimagining the statistics package to include many more measures, and delivering simple, digestible formats that can be easily integrated into client communications.
The Critical Path – Market outlook and understanding GVR stats with Andrew Lis
Q: What are the key factors that could swing the market in one direction or another?
Key factors include mortgage rates, consumer sentiment linked to policy and global events, immigration policy affecting demand, and the balance between buyers re-entering the market and sellers adjusting price expectations; the trajectory will likely be a gradual shift toward normalization rather than a dramatic surge.
The Critical Path – Market outlook and understanding GVR stats with Andrew Lis
Q: So what does your crystal ball say the rest of the year looks like?
Short-term forecasts may be easier to get right, but the longer-term outlook depends on multiple factors including rates, immigration policy, and local housing initiatives; overall, there is cautious optimism for gradual normalization and more activity in the second half of the year.
The Critical Path - Navigating the future of lending with Don Scott
Q: What are the biggest challenges in building a digital-first mortgage model in Canada?
Patience and trust-building are the toughest parts; market dynamics favor established players, and capital-raising hinges on proving slow-but-steady progress over time.
The Critical Path - Navigating the future of lending with Don Scott
Q: From your vantage point in the mortgage world, what are some of the more advanced or less obvious trends that might not be on the radar of REALTORS yet?
Tech-enabled solutions are meeting a real demand from a digital-native customer base, enabling more information access and product choices while preserving essential human contact for complex needs.
