This New Report Reveals What $1 Million Gets You When Buying A House In Canadian Cities



If you're thinking of buying a house in Canada or have given up on it entirely, you might be wondering what certain budgets can get you.

Now, $1 million goes a lot further in some Canadian cities, especially when compared to Toronto and Vancouver.

A new report from Royal LePage was released recently that broke down what $1 million can buy in Canada's real estate market.

Royal LePage figured out that the average home in Canada that costs between $950,000 and $1,050,000 has 3.2 bedrooms, 2.1 bathrooms and 1,760 square feet of living space.

"Depending on the market that you are shopping in, a $1 million home can mean something very different," said Karen Yolevski, the chief operating officer of Royal LePage Real Estate Services.

"Over time, however, we have watched the purchasing power of $1 million vary more widely between cities," Yolevski continued. "These days, this budget can buy a luxurious detached home in one location or a two-bedroom condominium in another."

You get more bang for your buck with homes in Edmonton, Regina, Halifax, Winnipeg and Quebec City, according to Royal LePage's report.
