"We are very gratified by our 2024 third-quarter fiscal results," said co-founder and chief executive officer Shubha Dasgupta. "This quarter saw positive movement in the right direction from both macroeconomic and business perspectives. Although the real estate market across the country has faced challenges, positive signs have begun to emerge. The Bank of Canada has started reducing interest rates, fixed mortgage rates have dropped, and we are seeing more supply coming onto the market. Additionally, policy changes such as the introduction of 30-year amortizations for first-time homebuyers indicate a focus on helping younger Canadians enter the housing market."
From a business perspective, we have continued to grow, even in challenging markets, which is a testament to our resilience and effectiveness as a business and a platform for hundreds of brokers across the country. We have launched a variety of new technology products to increase revenue and decrease costs, participated in numerous conferences, and continued to expand into new markets and add new offices this quarter.
"We are exceptionally pleased with the significant strides we've made this quarter," said co-founder and chief executive officer Shubha Dasgupta. "The new technology products we've launched are driving both increased revenue and reduced costs, demonstrating our commitment to innovation and efficiency. Our participation in numerous conferences and ongoing expansion into new markets highlight our relentless pursuit of growth. As the Canadian real estate market shows signs of recovery, we are poised to capitalize on these favourable conditions and continue our upward trajectory, delivering robust results for our stakeholders."
