In this episode of the Victoria Real Estate Podcast, Adrian Maclaren and Vincent Baart sit down with Adam Gant, a real estate investor and entrepreneur focused on housing finance and affordability.

With over 20 years of experience across private real estate funds and public REITs, Adam brings a unique perspective to one of the biggest challenges facing Canadians today — the cost of housing.

The conversation explores why most discussions around housing miss a critical piece: the cost of financing. Adam breaks down how the “price of money” influences what gets built, who can afford to buy, and how wealth is created (or limited) through real estate. He also makes some BOLD predictions on the future of Real Estate in Victoria. 

We also cover:

• How mortgage financing has changed since the 2008–2009 credit crisis
 • The long-term impact of COVID-era monetary policy
 • The relationship between housing, wealth concentration, and inequality
 • Why supply alone may not solve affordability
 • The role of population growth and money supply
 • Shared equity housing and alternative ownership models
 • A forward-looking outlook for BC real estate markets

This episode is ideal for anyone looking to better understand the deeper forces shaping housing in Canada — beyond the usual headlines.
