It must be rough for those people buying boats more expensive than a house. They really need the tax break.

More expensive than a house? Hahahahaha

for boats worth $200,000 or more

Yes. Over $200,000 includes boats that are worth more than a house.

Fair enough, I was mainly laughing at the premise of a $200k house in this economy. But fair point.

As a Canadian, I completely agree. Our house prices are insane.

Funny enough I live in Canada now. Not to downplay the housing crisis here, but despite how bad housing in Toronto is, it's somehow still cheaper AND significantly better quality than what I was used to back in NYC.

When my partner and I were looking for a place, the realtor got a kick out of us because we would get super excited over the most trivial things - like cabinets, closets, and working door handles 😂 You also get essentially double the square footage for a slightly lower price. I'm not even talking about Manhattan, I used to live in the outer boroughs
