We moved to Canada in 2019 as Permanent Residents.

We were living on rent in a 1-bedroom condo apartment in downtown Toronto.

So being familiar with the area, we wished to buy a property nearby.As we were first time home buyers, there were hundreds of questions running in our mind.

We interviewed our friends who recently purchased their homes in Toronto, read articles about affordable housing schemes on Canada Mortgage and Housing Corporation (CMHC), followed many YouTube channels which can help home buyers like us with tips on home buying.

At the same time, we registered ourselves with property search websites such as Realtor.ca which send the listings currently on sale in selected areas.

With Elementary Schools/Day Cares nearby as we have 1-year-old kid.With Excellent connectivity to nearby cities, as we both don’t drive.Around Young neighborhood with majorly South Asian CommunityWe were anxious choosing our place of residence.
