Director of Publications Canadian Real Estate Association While it is customary to look ahead in anticipation of fulfilment of dreams it is advisable to look back over one shoulder now and then to see if what has been comphshed in the past warrants optimism about the future The statement is as applicable to housing as any other unfulfilled dream or aspiration And a revrew of the accomplishments of Canada and Canadians in the housing field gives one good ammunition to be optimistic about the future in this country For unlike European countries Canada has produced more per cent of its present housing stock since Or to put it another way less than 20 per cent of all housing of all types is more than years old Even more striking is the fact that more than per cent of all the housing has been built since 1945 and that more than a quarter of it has been put inplace in the last decade The happy result is that Canada boasts a great diversity of housing of all types of all ages and of all sizes with the total now exceeding 7 million units This is a far cry from 1920 when the grandparents of today s generation of tenants and homeowners oc cupied only 202 350 housing units from the Atlantic to the Pacific In our provinces there were fewer than homes and only Ontario and Quebec had more than Of course the population has undergone a remarkable change since when there were only persons occupying the countrys 3 million square miles Boosted by immigration this had more than doubled by by which time the number of housing units had also almost doubled The countrys present population is just over million Industrialization fostered new employment op portunities and aided by heavy foreign investment new were opened new oil fields developed and vast hydroelectric projects initiated The St Lawrence Seaway long an unfulfilled dream became a reality and a booming economy accompanied by a higi standard of living became accepted as the norm Since then there have been some remarkable changes for the worse Growth in the economy has slowed and unemployment has reached per cent of the labor forceits highest peak since the Great Depression Inflation has grown from a minor inconvenience into an ugly monster which even the omnipotent Inflation Board cant tame Some people now believe it wont be overcome within their lifetimes The labor unions have become even more powerful and have been able to win inflationary wage settlements and disrupt the economv Government have not only intervened more and more in the economy and the lives of individuals but have also grown in strength There are now more than 1 persons on their payrolls Yet through violent swings in the economic cycle high unemployment inflation and other difficulties housing construction has moved steadily forward to the point where it is generally agreed Canadians are among the best housed people in the world if not the best housed people on earth Average weekly earnings in 1961 for instance were 78 24 The spring average weekly earnings were and climbing In the average existing home had a price tag of while the average price of a new house financed under the National Housing Act was Although wages more than tripled so did the price of houses Today however there are some units both existing and new which are being marketed at less than the corresponding gam in wages At the same time there are others above that figure In short there is a wide range of prices just as there is a wide range of housing types and styles Over the past the scales have been tipped more favorably in the direcion of the prospective home owner Interest rates from a high of 12V4 per cent to percent The price of existing housing rose about 6 per cent during the 12 month period ending in March However this was below the corresponding in average wages and inflation The latter rose 7 per cent during the same period The number of properties listed for sale through the Multiple Listing Service MLS during the first quarter of was 28 per cent higher than in the corresponding period a year earlier On the new home scene there was a surplus of unsold units on the market at the end of last year One study estimated there was a years supply of empty new housing units in Ontario which should keep prices in line Blair Jackson executive vice president of the Canadian Real Estate Association echoed this view on a national basis in the resale field A buyers market exists he said with a greater variety and selection for buyers to choose from with prices actually a better value than at this time a year ago Yes statistically at last Canadians have every right to be optimistic about the future as suggested earlier If they can match the level of accomplishments of the past there is every reason to believe the steadily growing benefits of being a CanadianwUlcontinue not only in housing but in other aspects of the good life It must be remembered however that 60 percent of the population did not become home owners without some financial sacrifice Neither will the remaining percent if home ownership is their goal FOUR SENSATIONAL FLOOR PLANS FEATURING FIRE PLACES TOP FINISHING BIG VILLAGE LOTS
