5 p& m0 h7 m6 X! e; Y3 h" dOTTAWA - First-time homebuyers who work in the downtown cores of Canada's largest cities pay less per square foot and enjoy shorter commutes than most others do in major cities around the world, a new survey says.7 s+ X1 B1 H/ A- Q5 z+ P

First-time homebuyers can expect to pay as little as $55 a square foot for a starter home in St. John's, N.L., that's within short commuting distance of the downtown business district, or more than 10 times that amount for a similar home in Vancouver, according to the survey by major real estate firm Century 21.

However, even in Vancouver, Canada's most costly real estate market, a starter home, at $577 a square foot, sounds like a bargain compared with the $1,051 cost in Paris, the most costly of 31 cities around the world, the survey found.

"Canada has six of the 10 least expensive and only three of the 10 most expensive housing markets surveyed for entry-level homebuyers working in the downtown business districts," the report released Thursday said.

But not only do first-time homebuyers who work in the downtown business districts of Canada's largest cities generally pay less per square foot for their homes, they also tend to enjoy shorter daily commutes than their peers in cities around the world, it added.
