Edmonton is where affordability still works. With a benchmark well under $450,000, first time buyers can qualify on one or two ordinary incomes, and insured purchase files make up a large share of the business.
It is also an investor market. Buyers from Vancouver and Toronto purchase Edmonton rentals for cash flow they cannot find at home, which means rental income calculations, out of province borrowers and lenders comfortable with a buyer who will never live in the property.
