Prediction / warning What you anticipated
1. America is next US cities could follow Canada, Australia, and New Zealand into severe housing affordability problems
2. Canadian mortgage trouble in 2018 Falling home values, mortgage renewals, and stress tests could put borrowers under pressure
3. Vancouver buyer exclusion You estimate that new mortgage rules could disqualify closer to 25% of potential buyers, above the reported 11–12% estimate
4. Farmland destruction Speculative property purchases could reduce productive agricultural land and threaten future food production
5. London loses green space Other cities could follow London's proposal to develop smaller sites, including gardens
6. Renting becomes unaffordable People unable to buy homes could increasingly find themselves unable to afford rent
7. Australian housing vulnerability Mortgage stress and elevated valuations could expose Australia's property market to a future correction
