"Even with good salaries we’re not finding anything within 10-15km of our jobs. Our limit is $500k, or $650k with a suite. We could look further out, but then we might as well live in a different city."

Even further out (pomo, coquitlam) we’re struggling to find a place in that range (but in that area we’d expect some kind of private yard, and not have to deal with $50-100k renovations to bring it to reasonable standard). We could look further out, but then we might as well live in a different city.”
