      You can’t buy a house in the GTA for 700K. You’re buying a 2 or 3-bedroom condo for that much today. Check the maintenance fees for such units in the GTA. I don’t think you’d see much under $600 for a 2-bed and often without hydro/water/heat in it.

      it is not that you pay that per month( unless you have strata building fees) but you have a roof replacement, or furnace change then you have a huge expense spread over you maintenamce saveing account. I once had Vaccum ,cleaner washer and dryer die in one week. But when I rented that is somebody elses problem. It was good renting 10 years ago maybe, but those days are done
