Réanne Cooper and Marc-Alexandre Lagacy moved to Clare in January after Lagacy got a job there. They never expected it would be this difficult to find a home. (Mélanie Courcelles)
Réanne Cooper was hoping to buy a starter home when she moved back to Clare, N.S., from New Brunswick earlier this year, but soon realized that dream was out of reach. Now that the prices have gone incredibly high, I mean these are not prices for people who are our age, said Cooper, 26.
Cooper and her partner settled instead on renting, but with very few units available, they ended up staying in a short-term rental for the first few months. They eventually found a house to rent longer term through a friend s wife s cousin who was looking for tenants.
