AI chatbots can help with personal finance—if you ask the right questions

– moneysense.ca

As Canadians increasingly turn to AI chatbots for help with everyday tasks like meal planning, workout routines and even mapping out vacation itineraries, some are also using it to help manage their money.

“It’s a personal financial assistant,” said Martin Dasko, a content creator focused on personal finance.

One way Dasko uses AI is to set up savings plans for upcoming vacations by giving ChatGPT a prompt about his savings target and asking for a plan on how to achieve that amount within a specific timeline.

“It’ll give you a monthly plan to follow,” he said. “It’s all in one spot … You can get a table, a chart and it’s easier than ever.”

Canadian home sales forecast downgraded—but the market may be turning a corner

– moneysense.ca

For the second time this year, the Canadian Real Estate Association has downgraded its forecast for home sales in 2025, even as it says a turnaround could be looming following increased activity in June.

The association reported that the number of homes changing hands across the country in June rose 3.5% compared with a year ago. Canadian home sales last month also increased 2.8% compared with May on a seasonally adjusted basis.

In its outlook released Tuesday, CREA said it now expects a total of 469,503 residential properties to be sold this year, a 3% decline from 2024. In April, the association forecast the number of home sales for 2025 to remain essentially unchanged from last year, which itself marked a steep cut from its January forecast of an 8.6% year-over-year increase.
