The national average home price of $495,100 is enough to buy a 3.3-bedroom home when averaged out across the country, according to a new .
But it’s a different story when buying a home for around $500K in Canada’s big cities.
In the country’s six most expensive real estate markets, that amount won’t even guarantee two bedrooms, the website found. And we can all guess where that national average price buys the smallest home.
Vancouver buyers will see Canada’s lowest number of bedrooms for a budget of around $500K, at just one bedroom on average.
Burnaby and Richmond came in joint second-lowest, at an average of 1.6 bedrooms for a budget of around $500K. Coquitlam was fourth nationally, at 1.7 bedrooms on average.
At the other end of the scale, $500K is considered a very healthy budget in Windsor, Ontario, where it will net you 4.3 bedrooms on average.
