If you were hypothetically in the market for a 2-bedroom Upper West Side, Manhattan apartment, you might have better luck purchasing a private island.
At $1.3 million, that New York apartment costs $300,000 more than a private island. Located four hours from Halifax International Airport, the Canso Islands in Nova Scotia are quite a steal. Tent, yurt or hut not included of course.
More on the islands and how to purchase them can be found at Huffington Post.
