I’m looking to make a move from Hamilton sometime in the next couple years to around Midland, Moonstone, Penetang area.
Better riding roads, simcoe county forest for dirt biking and snowmobiling. Works for me. I should be able to sell my house in Hamilton and get something much nicer and potentially with some property for the same money.
Sort of have cold feet right now though. I don’t want to sell, go all in up there and realize I want to come back only to have lost ground on the housing market around here and have to come up with a bunch of cash.
I might buy a cheaper house up there sooner then I plan to move and use it part time, reno/flip, or keep as a rental in the future if I do make the move.
There is typically some houses around for $250,000-$350,000 which is a nice entry point for a first time buyer. The ones under $300,000 will either be pretty small or need work however.
Lots of options outside of the GTA just depends what works for you.
