The U.S. housing market is having a tough time. Is Canada in the same mess?

What city is that is? I just sold my house outside the GTA and it sold for a lot more than that

Yes, it is a very nice area. It was a rental house and the landlord was selling off all of there property to retire. The people that were living there would only agree to let it be shown for 3 hours on saturdays so they were having trouble selling it.
I think that is why they let it go for cheap as similar places in the same area are going for much higher. Hopefully this is a good investment and I can’t wait to move in!
