Your go-to guide to smart, binge-worthy housing content for buyers, sellers, investors & agents alike:
Let’s be honest: there are a lot of real estate podcasts out there. Some feel like infomercials. Others are so dry you need a double espresso to make it to the halfway mark. But every once in a while, you stumble on a show that teaches you something, makes you think differently, or helps you understand the market with a little more clarity.
That’s what this list is about.
We’re spotlighting real estate podcasts with a strong YouTube presence – the ones that are consistently showing up with smart insights, honest takes, and valuable commentary on Toronto (and Canada’s) ever-evolving real estate landscape.
If you’re a buyer, seller, investor, agent – or simply fascinated by real estate – these shows are 100% worth your time.
Let’s get into it.
