Housing budget for us is a tough question. The more a neighborhood offers, the less we need to spend in order to keep life exciting. A nice international population always helps with lots of good music, theatre, dancing, and restaurants.
We can probably purchase a house for about $400,000 if taxes are reasonable. We could go higher if the location is just right.
Thanks for the recommendation!
There's not many houses in that price even in the areas you wouldn't want to be in, you could probably get a condo though.

Yes, I believe we will be buying a condo. Toronto does appear to be going through a similar boom that affected Chicago a few short years ago when prices far out ran the ability for the people and the economy to support the prices (speculation). But for now, it appears that there are buyers who are willing to pay $500 - $800 / square foot. So I will be monitoring the market closely.

Good luck!
Technically it's called 'The Beach' (I used to live there) - it's a great spot but I'm not sure about getting a condo for $400,000 there....it may be doable if the OP is not too fussy!

Thanks. Yes, "The Beach" is one of the places I am investigating. Thanks much.

When i lived in the area back in the mid 70's i never heard the area called anything but the beaches, but i guess times change and i'll refer to it in the future as the beach.

It is a topic of great debate. I used to call it 'the beaches' at one point too but it is 'the beach' according to the long time residents.
