You are comparing apples to oranges
Even in port credit you cannot rent a brand new bachelor in a new building that’s not in a basement, which has new stainless steel appliances, dishwasher, air conditioning and at least a gym or pool.
I’m not knocking the idea of paying low rent to save money to get ahead in life, I think that’s something all young people should do.
But comparing port credit bachelor unit life to a new build 1 bedroom in the core is just a bad comparison
- DKnoll 8y agoI wasn't saying it's the same, I'm saying there are other options. For the record I don't live in a basement, I live street level in a real apt (not a sublet) in the hottest neighbourhood in Mississauga. I'm a half block from Lakeshore and 3 from the GO station. You can find similar apts in Etobicoke, which is also in Toronto.
- captain_perl 8y ago> hottest neighbourhood in Mississauga Mississauga ... lol. What's funny is I remember when the downtown waterfront condos were $50,000 each and nobody wanted to buy - long walk to downtown and freezing cold in winter. How things change.
- DKnoll 8y agoMississauga has a larger population than Vancouver, it's not some backwater suburb of Toronto. Have you ever been to Port Credit? Come around and I'll buy you a drink. You'll eat your words lol. I hope for your sake you bought one of those 50k condos. I'm 25 so I missed the boat on cheap real estate.
