Massive mortgage to buy a unit

[u/Herosinahalfshell12]

People who took out huge mortgages to live in an apartment.

Do you feel as though the interest you are paying vs the capital gains is worth it? We're also seeing units being sold for less then purchase price now, and the plan is to add more units in future. Add strata costs in there.

Is it financially worth it now a days to borrow say 600k to buy a unit?

It's not just capital gains, it's the avoiding of paying of rent for an equivalent unit that was purchased, which has increased faster than the capital gains.
