Media Advisory: CMHC to release latest Housing Supply Report
Rental housing starts nearly doubled the 10-year average, boosting total construction to 259,000 units and easing rental market pressures, Canada Mortgage and Housing Corporation reported.
- On Wednesday, Canada Mortgage and Housing Corp. said housing construction rose six per cent year-over-year to 259,000 units in 2025, led by rentals and growth in 'missing middle' housing.
- Total missing middle starts rose around 10 per cent across the seven major regions in 2025, with Calgary and Edmonton leading at around 60 per cent and Toronto at roughly half.
- Vancouver posted a new record led by apartment completions while Calgary and Edmonton saw strong ground-oriented completions; rental starts hit record highs in Calgary, Edmonton, Ottawa, Halifax, and Montreal.
- Rising unsold inventory accompanied slower condo activity, the report said condominium presales collapsed and developers struggled to meet financing thresholds, risking future supply especially in Toronto and Vancouver.
- Since construction timelines can span years, a slowdown today risks future supply constraints as CMHC projects 4.8 million new homes over the next decade, calling family-sized ownership housing 'vulnerable'.
