    we’re charging you fines in the amount of what it would have cost to buy a house

    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.

      $169k https://www.realtor.ca/real-estate/27687505/158-douglas-avenue-fredericton

      Although the being sold “AS IS, WHERE IS” is a bit concerning. Flood risk maybe?

      If you can produce $110k in fines you can probably also pull off a downpayment and at least a few years of payments. If you can’t buy a house that’s still several years of renting.
