I, a 26 y/o female living in central Alberta, and my husband are looking to buy a house. My dad owns a plumbing company and is friends with contractors, therefore can get us into a new townhome in a nice area of town for $40k under selling price. He thinks we should buy it and just move in a year and make $50k ish. My husband and I could also afford to buy a house for $375k ish on our own, typically placing us in a detached house from the 70s, well maintained, bigger lot, etc.
I get the appeal of making money, there’s some relational issues with my dad that could make it sticky, but I also don’t like moving and don’t know what the market will do in the next couple years. If housing costs go up $50k anyways, we will still have to buy a house within our small budget again in a year or two.
We have a baby already and want to keep growing our family, the townhome is quite small and would be temporary.
What would you do?
TIA

Hello, I am a Canadian needing recommendations, top loader HE with hard water. I do wash cloth diapers on top of the normal stuff. So far I’ve been making a diy powder (learning this is a bad idea) with sodium percarbonate, baking soda, borax, Epsom salt, and washing soda. I also usually throw a spoonful of SAL’S SUDS by dr bronners in there for good measure… tbh I’m winging it, and it’s clearly not working well. Husband has lots of white shirts and they always have grease stains, food stains, etc and I don’t manage to get them out
Main concerns are being unscented and natural against babies skin as well as mine since I have a autoimmune condition
TIA
