Trudeau calls for ban on foreign property ownership, blind bidding and "renovictions"

1.

For Minister of Housing, Diversity and Inclusion Ahmed Hussen, Trudeau laid out the framework for combating the soaring house prices and lack of inventory which includes a temporary ban on foreign buyers for recreational property, ban on blind bidding, an anti-flipping tax, preventing landlords from evicting people to renovate, and scale up rent-to-own opportunities for people who want to transition from renting to purchasing. Which of these do you agree with Trudeau enacting?

An anti-flipping tax- requiring properties to be held for at least 12 months. This will reduce speculative demand in the marketplace and help to cool excessive price growth.
