You have to be impressed with the way the Canadians handle the mortgage market. I even wrote this blog in red to honor their system. It's no wonder the housing crisis did not cross the border. They may be due for a bubble, for instance, in Toronto, but not like the US. It's almost impossible for the housing market to crash there because 70% of Canadians own their own home! The crash, if it did come, would probably do so in new construction. It seems as though Canadians just are not spoiled with these 30 year loans like we are because they pay theirs off very quickly. Take a gander at this link to the five things you may not know about the Canadian housing market by www.ratehub.caIt's either going to make you cry or say wow. For those Canadians who are considering moving or investing in ... 11/22/2012
