I could buy a property but it's the not working that's a no winner.
I would need to work - I've thought about staying for 6 months, then letting it out and returning here to work but how feasible is that????
I wouldn't live in Quebec I'd prefer to be about an hour away just over the border in Ontario.
Has anyone any weird, wonderful or workable solutions we haven't thought of?
It is quite feasible. There are many people from UK/Europe who have vacation homes in Canada, returning to their home country for six months of the year. Renting your Canadian property for six months may prove an issue given that short term renters may be difficult to find.
