Houses under 100k CAD are either
- So far away from a major (by Canadian standards) city you're basically living in the middle of nowhere
- Run down and you're looking at 100k in renovations and upgrades
- Unless you're working remotely or are already well off, there are no well paying jobs out in the middle of nowhere
- Education is an issue: far away from schools for kids and only southern BC, southern Ontario, southern Quebec have high ranking universities/colleges
Any house in a desirable location is out of reach for many people. More and more people are now looking further out, thus driving prices higher in those locations as well. I don't think these people are looking to necessarily move out into the middle of Saskatchewan or other middle-Canada provinces where they can get those 100k homes for the reasons listed above.

- frfl 3y agoNot really. There are actual homes, but they're old and no where close to major cities Couple of examples https://www.realtor.ca/real-estate/25857143/101-galway-street-limerick https://www.realtor.ca/real-estate/25857143/101-galway-stree... https://www.realtor.ca/real-estate/25917262/323-pottery-street-eastend https://www.realtor.ca/real-estate/25917262/323-pottery-stre... https://www.realtor.ca/real-estate/25938347/3-pacholok-avenue-ethelbert-r31?view=imagelist https://www.realtor.ca/real-estate/25938347/3-pacholok-avenu...
- red-iron-pine 3y agohonestly id rather have the mobile home, easier to fix, probably closer to stuff i want [insert meth joke here], and i don't have to worry about the foundation flooding.
