Episode 2 Talking Tariffs

LSTAR's 2025 Chair Dale Marsh and LSTAR CEO Bill Madder sit down for the latest episode of the Real Estate Radar podcast. Join them as they dive into the pressing question: How will tariffs negatively impact the housing market?

Tariffs can have a significant impact on the housing market by:

Increasing construction costs: Higher tariffs on imported building materials can drive up the cost of construction, making homes more expensive to build¹.
Reducing housing affordability: As construction costs rise, these expenses are often passed on to homebuyers, making it harder for people to afford new homes².
Slowing down housing supply: Higher costs and economic uncertainty can lead to fewer housing starts, reducing the overall supply of homes³.

Tune in to hear Dale and Bill discuss these impacts and more! Don't miss out on this insightful episode.

We would like to acknowledge the Indigenous Peoples in whose traditional territory we work and live: the Anishinabek; the Haudenosaunee; and the Lunaapeew. The three distinct First Nations communities within the Middlesex-London area are: Chippewas of the Thames First Nation; Oneida Nation of the Thames; and Munsee-Delaware Nation. We acknowledge the many longstanding treaty relationships between Indigenous Nations and Canada – including the London Township Purchase of 1796 between the Anishinabek and the Crown. This territory is now home to many First Nations, Metis, and Inuit peoples.
Each of us must honour these relationships, and we all have a responsibility to reconcile.
