The one default on that calculator is something like 7.5% interest on the mortgage. I dropped it down to 6- although I'm only paying 5.2% now.

Also bump that rent up to $1500 from $1000. More realistic in today's market in Calgary.

Don't get me wrong- renting is right for many people; including myself not too long ago.
