Hey, we heard you can't afford a house, so we're charging you fines in the amount of what it would have cost to buy a house.......we're so cool! We solved homelessness! Because now if you want to be homeless, it actually costs more to NOT buy a house. So you may as well just buy a house!
We did it guys! We ended the concept of homelessness! High five!
Oh how I wish I could buy a house for that kind of money. You should go look at what housing costs in Canadian cities.

Although the being sold "AS IS, WHERE IS" is a bit concerning. Flood risk maybe?
It's in Fredericton. It's so tiny, I don't know if I can even call that place a city.
