加拿大豐業銀行表示,加拿大房地產市場今年可能不會復甦。

-- 加拿大豐業銀行表示,3月全國房屋銷售量連續第五個月下降,經季節性調整後較2月份下降0.1%,而自2025年3月以來,未經季節性調整的房屋銷售量已下降2.3%。 從2月到3月,該銀行追蹤的31個本地市場中有17個市場的房屋銷售量下降。 此外,全國新掛牌房源數量在2月至3月期間經季節性調整後下降0.2%,自2025年3月以來經季節性調整的房屋掛牌量已下降4.9%。 豐業銀行指出,造成這一現象的因素包括:自2024年年中達到近期高峰以來,抵押貸款利率下降的滯後效應推高了住房需求;自2025年初以來,貿易緊張局勢加劇,導致經濟和收入不確定性;以及近幾週的伊朗戰爭。 加拿大豐業銀行表示,對中東戰爭的預期是,緊張局勢將在2026年年中左右緩和,油價將在今年第三季之前保持高位,之後逐漸回落。豐業銀行預計房屋需求和價格將出現「溫和」復甦。 然而,該行補充道,這只是一個工作假設,並非對伊朗和中東局勢的預測,並指出衝突持續時間及其對油價的影響存在相當大的上行風險。 豐業銀行表示,如果衝突持續時間更長,且油價高於該行預期,那麼潛在購屋者的收入不確定性將進一步抑制住房需求,從而推遲住房需求和價格的預期復甦。該行還補充道,如果中東局勢造成足以推高利率和抵押貸款利率的通膨壓力,導致政策利率收緊和/或投資者要求長期債務工具收益率更高,那麼這些住房需求的不利因素將會加劇。 因此,鑑於貿易和地緣政治狀況此後並沒有真正發生變化,加拿大豐業銀行繼續預測,今年住房需求和價格不會出現「實質」和持續的復甦。
