THE BUYERS: Ben Ho Lung, 25, a marketing coordinator, and Naomi Nguyen, 26, a pharmacist.
THE STORY: Last summer, Ben was living with his mother in Aurora, Naomi was renting an apartment in Danforth Village and neither of them had a car, so seeing each other meant braving two hours of public transit. With about $120,000 in combined savings, the couple thought they finally had a shot at breaking into the market. So, in September, they set a $650,000 budget and began looking for a condo close to Naomi’s work downtown. Also on their wish list: a big kitchen for Ben—an avid cook—as well as a den he could use as an office.
