“The credit crunch will only have a slight effect on mortgage availability for people buying $350,000 condos (which is quite cheap for downtown). It certainly won’t result in people having to pay only cash! That’s just a completely ridiculous assertion. Financing will still be widely available, but it will be harder for people to stretch beyond their means. The days of interest-only financing could be over, and that’s a good thing.”
