Ah, that makes sense. I'm sure she cares about her career though

Hopefully, you don't need to be in that overpriced zoo for her to practice it!

For her as a dancer, it's basically guaranteed she's going to need to be there if she wants any modicum of actual success.

I'm looking just north of Markham, and am hoping that by the time I'm ready to buy, prices arent super stupid there. Worst case I'll get a transfer to our Sarnia branch and buy a mansion for 300k

To put a point on that, I drive 40 minutes each way to work as a trade off for owning a house. And I'm in PA, where houses are cheap, relatively.

Besides, the value of a house is what the seller is willing to sell it for and a buyer is willing to pay for it. Chew on that fer ah spell .....

If you don't want to "age out" of a job ....... go into real estate ....... no-no, don't do that ......just kidding ......

PS - at least you're not upside down in your house ........

It's also possible that enough people use Zillow as a guide that it creates a self-fulfilling prediction...

For those that didn't go to the link and look at the photos, this is my favorite part, the floorplan of the 1100sqft basement. Talk about a potential man cave!

Yea, but can you drive into the basement?

40 minutes to Toronto is still in Toronto, so prices are still jacked. Realistically, you need to be 1.25 hours or more to get slightly cheaper housing.

Well now, Teseo, I have the place for you .....

https://www.zillow.com/homes/for_sal...t/5_zm/0_mmm/?

A little landscaping (colored rocks and cacti) and it would be move in ready.

Yep, I'll betcha I could get the price down to less than $25,000.
