Solutions to Issues & Challenges - Investing in Nova Scotia

The purpose of this post is to create a localized source of knowledge to provide solutions to the issues and challenges faced when investing in Nova Scotia

One such problem of mine is finding affordable single family homes in Halifax to flip.  To help with this issue, my business partner and I have created a team of bird dogs to canvass neighborhoods in the HRM.  We then do a direct mail campaign to ask the homeowners if they are interested in selling their house - private sale. This technique has been successful thus far.

I know some are involved in networking groups but would anyone be interested in doing a monthly zoom call?

We could take turns presenting information, have a time set aside for tactical discussions involving our active projects.

Potentially invite guest speakers, I know some private lenders who would do a presentations, maybe a lawyer or 2, insurance agents and real estate agent who would all be willing to share their expertise.

A final benefit is being accountable to peers is often a motivator.

Thoughts on this?
