3 Canadian Fixer Uppers vs 3 Turnkey Homes — The Cheap One Isn't Always Cheaper
Are fixer-uppers in Canada actually cheaper than turnkey homes once you run the full number? In this video, I compare 3 Canadian fixer-uppers with 3 turnkey homes in the same towns to see whether the cheaper house is really the better deal. We look at real listings in Miramichi, New Brunswick, Kirkland Lake, Ontario, and Nipawin, Saskatchewan — comparing purchase price, renovation costs, property taxes, heating systems, days on market, resale risk, and the hidden math behind each property. A $55,000 house can look like an obvious bargain. But once you add ceiling repairs, bathrooms, kitchens, foundation questions, financing costs, and the reality of selling later in a slow market, the answer becomes a lot less obvious. This is not a house tour. This is the math behind the price.
