By Josh Sherman | 4 minute read Feb 17 From coast to coast, Wahi has rounded up 10 homes that have everything a couple could want. What makes a home perfect for a couple? It depends on the couple, of course. Various factors weigh on a couple’s homebuying decisions, from location and price point, to architecture and amenities. One thing many couples seem to agree on, though, is the fact that purchasing a home can strengthen romantic bonds. In fact, according to Wahi’s recent 2024 Real Estate Romance Survey, one in three Canadians who bought a home with a partner say it actually improved their relationship. As love’s still lingering in the air following Valentine’s Day — and with the Family Day long weekend right around the corner for much of Canada — Wahi decided to scour the real estate listings for homes that are perfectly suited for couples of all kinds.
