About this episode
What actually happened in the 2025 real estate market — and what does it mean for 2026? In this episode of The Real Estate Podcast, Ariel Kormendy and Adrian Trott revisit last year’s predictions, break down where everyone (including banks and economists) got it wrong, and share our updated outlook for the 2026 market. We dive into pricing trends across Halton and Peel, inventory challenges, power of sale activity, interest rate uncertainty, and why timing the market continues to be a losing strategy. Plus, we reveal our 2026 price predictions and invite you to share yours.VIDEO SECTIONS & TIMESTAMPS0:00 Intro1:55 Reviewing our original 2025 price predictions3:08 Why timing the market doesn’t work6:35 The real 2025 price change revealed8:13 Politics, economy & confidence impacts10:12 Inventory, pricing realism & seller pressure11:13 First 2026 prediction: continued decline12:43 Second 2026 prediction: a milder correction13:55 Interest rates & what could change next15:26 Make your own prediction (and why it matters)17:52 Outro/recapWatch on YouTube:https://youtube.com/kormendytrottListen on Spotify:https://open.spotify.com/show/1pwncyet9NydbgTmx5D21kLinktree:https://linktr.ee/kormendytrottInstagram:https://instagram.com/kormendytrottYouTube:https://youtube.com/kormendytrottFacebook:https://facebook.com/kormendytrottX:https://x.com/kormendytrottLinkedIn:https://linkedin.com/company/ktrealtyTikTok:https://tiktok.com/@kormendytrottThe Kormendy Trott Team was formed in 2011 by Ariel Kormendy and Adrian Trott.
