Statistics Canada reports consistently state over 75% of Canada's Wealth is held in Canadian real estate. The Economist magazine recently proclaimed over 78% of the World's Wealth is held in real estate. The importance of the housing market with its impact on all aspects of the economy cannot be understated. Unlike other financial markets the housing market is easily forecast as turns in the market are recorded more than a year in advance of price changes appearing.
All current housing market metrics released to the public and used by housing analysts around the globe were created with one sole purpose in mind, that being to facilitate homes trading hands. Further those metrics evolved over decades into highly sophisticated tools to allow the sellers of real estate to obtain the highest price possible in the shortest period of time. Until 2010 no buyer side metric of the housing market was ever released. Ross Kay Realty Consultants changed the world of housing market analysis by creating metrics that look at the market with no intended outcome of their design other than recording trends.

It is unethical to advise clients without knowing yourself where the market is headed and why. In the past having credible and reliable housing market forecasts was impossible. Today just the opposite is true. Whether those forecasts are used to advise buying or selling the family home to best protect someone's financial future or to determine the future value of a given stock or bond, RKRC has made giving that advice as accurate and timely as how the hands on a clock rotate. At RKRC we are never wrong because we can't be.
Housing Markets are not like other financial markets because of the sheer financial resources required to change the path the market is on today. Change happens incrementally and each minor adjustment can be recorded and vetted months or years before any sign the ship has turned being realized by the players in it.

Between January of 1980 and December of 2017 a balanced portfolio of Canadian Residential Real Estate that began with a value of $100,000 would now be worth $3.8 million simply trading it using our metrics. At no time during those 37 years would a single month of portfolio declines have been recorded. Only Two Rules were required to be followed without hesitation. No complicated guessing, no reading volumes of market research and no need to assume any risk at all, other than Canadian currency collapsing. Yet, even with this degree of certainty in real estate investments owning that real estate with cash makes bad financial sense in the long term. This is where advice becomes important.
They say you cannot "Time the Housing Market" and we say that's "nonsense". Housing markets can be timed with precision when you know what to look for, where to look for it and if you can read what you see. We use our 40 plus years of market knowledge to make those three things happen. The best part is because we are so certain of our ability to read the market, we can offer a full historical payment refund should we ever miss a single turn of the market.
Now is the time to take your consultancy business to the next level by empowering your clients with RKRC housing market research. It is ZERO Risk you to you and an unchallenged value to your clients. You simply cannot advise anyone on finances if you don't include housing market analysis in your daily research.
