Residents of Ontario who want to buy a house in a cheap city might have to go a long way outside the Greater Toronto Area.
Last month, the independent real estate marketplace Zolo released its list of Ontario’s most affordable cities. The company looked at home prices, unemployment rates, and population growth before making its decision.
The three top huge urban communities on Zolo’s rundown can be generally tracked down in the Ottawa region.
Nepean, a municipality just west of the capital, was the most affordable. The typical home cost is about $701,987 while the typical family pay is about $137,000.
This indicates that homebuyers would need approximately 5.12 years to pay off their purchase, as calculated by Zolo. The buyer’s other financial obligations are probably not taken into account in this calculation.
The second reasonable enormous city was Ottawa appropriate, trailed by Kanata.
The top 10 list of the most affordable cities contained no other major cities.
The top ten list included only one medium-sized city, defined as having 30,000 to 100,000 residents.
The typical home cost in LaSalle, found right external Windsor, was recorded at about $259,000. According to Zolo, the region’s median income is approximately $144,600.
The main three little urban communities on the rundown are Wasaga Ocean side, Casselman and Mount Backwoods.
Wasaga Beach houses sell for an average of $325,189. Zolo predicts that homeowners will be able to pay off their home in just over 3.5 years with an average income of $91,900.
New Liskeard, a northern municipality near the Quebec border, was ranked as the least affordable city in Ontario.
The typical home cost in New Liskeard is recorded at $2,291,000 while the typical family pay is simply $92,000.
