Daniel Foch
Welcome to a data-driven channel focused on Canadian real estate, housing economics, and artificial intelligence.
I’m Daniel Foch, a real estate broker at Valery.ca, an AI-powered real estate brokerage, and the co-founder of Realist.ca. I also host The Canadian Real Estate Investor Podcast.
This channel breaks down what is actually happening in Canada’s housing market using real data, economic analysis, and firsthand industry experience.
Topics include Canadian housing market updates, real estate prices, mortgage rates, interest rates, inflation, unemployment, housing supply, affordability, and public policy. I cover real estate investing strategies for buyers, investors, and operators with a strong focus on macroeconomic trends.
I also review AI tools for real estate, testing CRMs, automation software, content tools, valuation models, and agent workflows. Each review answers one question. Can this AI tool replace or improve a real task a realtor or investor does today?

WOW... what a chart.
New ALL TIME RECORD for new rental apartment completions...
Canada went from building virtually NO rental for decades to almost ONLY rentals.
Almost exclusively from CMHC MLI Select.
Vacancies are going up, rents are going down.

Rental construction is now approaching nearly 50% of Canada's construction activity. This is absolutely wild.
Housing affordability is inbound in Canada. Vacancy going up, and rents falling. Huge risk moment for multifamily investors.
