      Just go on realtor.ca and look for 0 bedroom 1 bath units

      20k down will get you into a <400k condo that will be like 2/3 the cost of what rent would be

      However I would be concerned it’s a hard sell in 5 years when you want to upgrade. I know a lady who lives happily in 400sqft but I couldn’t.

          In Seattle we call these studio apartments, I learned reading this thread that it’s not a normal thing. My friends that live in one can’t cook without their bed absorbing the smell.
