A suite VS paying strata is like a $18,000 a year swing into the red..

Talking like a detached neighbor is similar to two neighbors that you share 2 sheets or drywall with is insane. Like that mentality of choosing a townhome over a detached in a similar pricing scheme is completely insane to me, financially it makes zero sense.

I’ll dig up some pictures of the construction of these townhomes..personally I’d take living in a concrete high rise over a townhome more often than not knowing what I know and seeing the arrangements I have in these developments.

Imo if all things are equal and a detached with a suite is 100-200k more than a townhome (regardless of age really, you deal with the home) you are absolutely insane to not take the detached money maker. It makes zero sense long term to dump literally a hundred grand into strata fees over the term of ownership as opposed to making a hundred k in the first 4-5 years of rental income.
