I think to each their own.But you can get some good deals.Bonds have more then doubled in last 6 years,Maint.also has doubled.And if you find someone hungry to sell you may save 40k or more on a 230k house.In our case thought we would get new but made offer on 5 yr old hse.Did not think they would take but did.The cheapest we could have built was about 47k more.The bond was about 12 k of that. So for us it was a no brainer plus it was furnished.
