I am single also and have owned my home for almost 4 years. I was 23 when I bought my house. It is dinky, very very dinky. But like I said in your apt post, The payment is half of what I would pay in rent and it is MINE MINE MINE! I can have as many animals as I want. (which I do :dog/cat/fish).
I have had 2 of my friends at 23 and 24 buy their own houses also. It just makes sense, in rural OH. I realize that Canada might be different.

In this area, at my salary, it would be impossible.

I bought my first house when I was a twenty-three year old single parent with a ten month old baby. Talk about scary!

Then I sold that house, quit my job, bought a house, dog kennel and grooming shop when I was a twenty-seven year old single parent with a four year old son. Talk about even scarier!

But all is well. Life is full of changes, disappointments, heartaches and upsets. But life is also full of joy, laughter, peace and happiness. It takes a little rain to make the flowers grow, Lalania.

Do what makes you happy. Do what gives you peace. Cultivate your own soul, follow your own interests. Life will unfurl for you at its own pace. Flow with it and you will find joy. Fight it and you will be unhappy.

My ex-bf's bro lives in Nanaimo (on Vancouver Island) and he has some friends that recently moved their company there, so he's putting in a word for me! It's waayyyyy cheaper to live there.
