Should I buy or rent a home in Montreal?
If you have not spent a lot of time in Montreal, you should rent before even thinking about buying. We asked expats there about the buy vs. rent decision...
"Whether you should buy or rent a home in Montreal depends on your individual circumstances. If you plan to stay in the city for a long period of time, buying a home may be a better option as it can provide you with a stable investment and a place to call your own. On the other hand, if you are only planning to stay in the city for a short period of time, renting may be a more cost-effective option. Additionally, if you are not sure how long you will stay in the city, renting may be a better option as it allows you more flexibility. Ultimately, the decision to buy or rent a home in Montreal, Canada should be based on your individual needs and preferences," mentioned another expat when asked about moving to Montreal, Canada.
