Newbie from Calgary

[Kelvin Hamilton]

Hello to everyone, I'm new to the forum and I'm excited to know that I am now surrounded by many motivated real estate investors who are keen to get ahead. I hope to learn and be mentored by you and grow my business so that I too can mentor others. My hope is to gain a better understanding in putting numbers together to know whether the deal I'm looking at is viable or not. I am particularly interested in retail and office space, and understanding the $/sf numbers and what the YP should be. My aim is to find old properties to demolish and build... Properties whose zoning lends itself to commercial as well as residential. As an architect, I hope to build on my current skill set and would be more than happy to assist you in answering questions relating to buildings and its potential for changes and/or refurb opportunities.
