## Resource

Recent immigrants in Canada are buying homes faster than ever, with some provinces seeing their homeownership rates catch up—or even surpass—those of Canadian-born residents. Economic-class immigrants, in particular, are reaching parity with locals within five years of arrival. While Ontario and BC still lag behind, newcomers across the country are increasingly entering the housing market, often taking on higher mortgage debt. Many first-time buyers had prior Canadian experience on work or study permits, showing a clear pathway to homeownership—even if it means prioritizing property equity over retirement savings.
