Is buying a home in Canada even worth it or should you just rent? | Urbanized
To rent or to buy a home in Canada? If you’re a millennial living in this country, that may be the big question in your life right now. With the Bank of Canada recently cutting its key interest rate for the third time, and housing prices in some major cities forecasted to decrease sharply by the end of the year, you may be weighing your options. Despite the softening housing market, the cost-of-living crisis persists. So, is it really worth buying a home in Canada, or are there benefits to being a renter? Daily Hive spoke with Thuy Lam, a certified financial planner and money coach based in Toronto. She offers advice-only financial planning, which means that she can remain completely objective because she’s not selling any financial products.
