Positive : No rent. Mortgage to own. You own something in Canada. No picking up snow.

Negetive :
Condo fees.
No appriciation of value over significant time. Burlington is sparsely populated. May find it hard to sell.
Also hard to sell if building boom busts. if need to go to india for 2 months, you pay the condo. fees as waste.

Condos are better investments than coops which are more common in NY. There are a ton of new construction condos in the GTA area. The disadvantage in buying a condo is that you dont have any control on the value of your unit. It all depends on the number of sales in the building and the area.....VS if you bought a home then you would see more appreciation in the value of your home - at a much faster pace.
