Investing in Abbotsford, BC

[Conor Kelly]

Hi guys, I just wanted to start this thread to keep the Vancouverites on this website updated with what's going on in Abbotsford (my backyard). I've been on BiggerPockets for 4 years now and I know finding information about investing in Canadian cities is very difficult. Most of the information/discussions are typically based on US cities. 

Anyways, I plan to post news articles and events that will have affect on real estate prices in abbotsford/Fraser Valley and encourage any discussion on the topic! 

I realize Abbotsford isn't a glorious a 1% or cash-flow heavy city which is the principals BiggerPockets was built on but investing out of state/province isn't for everyone. I personally own 2 properties out of area and although they've done very well for me I do plan to buy my next rental out here.
