Regardless of your budget, buying a home in Toronto isn't easy. While a starting price of $4 million—which is currently around five times the average home price—should open up your options to more beautiful properties, it might also get you the ugliest listing on the market. With supply down and demand up, you can't always be choosey, I guess.
