First, are you looking to buy a single family residence or another type of property? 

For the $525K property, with the low mortgage rate(you will probably never get a such low rate), it might make sense to hold onto it for now, especially if you can still sell it as a primary residence within the next three years and avoid capital gains taxes.

You can apply for permanent residency after five years.

Depending on comfort and cash, it might be a viable option as you can build equity and then sell without having capital gains, assuming it's your primary residence and you've lived there for 2 years.

Areas that saw population bumps during the pandemic could see milder but significant demographic shifts, as will almost any area where effected residents have family, relatives or property available for immediate longterm occupancy.

I'm not sure that the property being perfect for your investment criteria makes it unique enough to warrant a judge forcing the sale, especially considering that it was not listed for sale to begin with and that you're going to be using it for an investment property not a primary residence.

If that means renting out part of your residence, that's great for cash flow and experience.
