I've developed a crazy idea to buy a flat in NCL. I have enough money for a deposit and there are banks that provide mortgage to people on work permits - Halifax, for example. As soon as I bring nIcholas over, I wouldn't be able to rent a room and flat's rent is comparable with a mortgage. So why waste the money?

it was a) 5 years ago and b) in North-East where the housing is generally
cheaper than in South.
As to leaving for Canada, here you won't be able to buy anything decent for
under 200 K CAD (it will be either a very small 2-bedroom condo apartment or
condo townhouse, or a detached house in the middle of nowhere and you'll have to
spend 2-3 hours a day commuting). At least these
are Toronto prices; in other Canadian cities the housing is cheaper but the job market is
much worse... same as everywhere else, I guess.
