Meet Alex, a 29-year-old recent graduate from the University of Waterloo's School of Planning. Having just landed a job in urban development, they are contemplating whether to buy a family home or continue renting in the vibrant city where they studied. Growing up in a small town, Alex is eager to settle down but also drawn to the flexibility that renting offers in a fast-paced urban environment. Balancing their career aspirations and personal life while navigating the real estate market is at the forefront of their mind.
