Perry and Cheryl Meriot are Edmonton Alberta natives who are sick and tired of the brutal winters there.

But they have a very firm budget of ,000 which means they may not be able to buy as close to the beach as they'd like.

The unit has 1 bedroom and 1 and a half bathrooms in 1000 square feet. It's listed at ,000 but upgrading to a second floor unit means the price would be closer to ,000.
