In our monthly consumer Q&A, ‘‘The Situation’, Urmi asks and John responds to the detailed questions that real estate consumers across the GTA have sent in.

We hear from a young family wondering if they should stretch to buy their family home, seller who wonders if she needs to reduce her condo price and an owner planning to downsize in the next few years — and wondering if they should risk waiting.
