Hello from the frozen north!

I've been a Real Estate investor for about 12 years now. I started young, at 22 with my first student rental property in Waterloo (a university town about 1 hour outside of Toronto). I've slowly expanded to seven units split between a multiplex an SFR and a condo. I've been managing these properties on the side, while holding down a full time job. I do the property management myself and most of the repairs.

I've been coasting for several year now, I haven't been growing or putting much thought in to my investments, but I'm committed to making a change this year. It's time for me to break from the rat race and look at making Real Estate a full-time venture.

Part of this journey means committing to learning and I came across Bigger Pockets as a result.

Feel free to ask me questions and I'll do my best to help. I'm looking forward to being a part of this great community!

@Mark Bradford

I think they get a little different kind of frozen up there lol. Although I do concur with you that it has been brutal here this winter. Welcome @Ming Lim if you ever have any questions or any interest in investing stateside let me know!! Actually picked up my first Canadian owner this winter from Nova Scotia she and her husband have been nothing but pleasant!! Good luck and happy investing!
