I’m not a home owner but the Canadian housing market is out of control. I just read a story about a 3700 sq ft house in vancouver that was listed for $1.9m in April, sold for $2.6m after a 25-person bidding war and is now back on the market at $3.5m. In 1996, the same house sold for $531,000.

Knowing the history in the US, I should just lever up buy way more than I can afford and wait for the government bailout.
