Canadian Investors Success Stories

HI BP,

I am interested in hearing the success stories of various Canadians. I started my REI education a year ago and decided this is going to be a passion. I purchased my first property this May achieving my 1 year goal. Now that It is year 2 I want to purchase a second property. I am hoping to hear of any success stories in regards to wholesaling in Canada, virtually in USA, investing in USA/Canada and also anyone who left Canada to live somewhere warmer and does real estate full time.

Cheers,

Neil

HI @Neil Sea - congrats on your 1st purchase and I love that you've set tangible goals!  Nice work!  There isn't a ton of wholesaling in Canada (although i'm sure it exists in some markets) for various reasons - search the forums and you'll see some great explanations - especially from Roy N!  

I do all of my investing in small multi-family properties in Nova Scotia.....this is a year of growth for me too, i've gone from 8 to 20 units since January.......and will get to 30 by the end of 2016.   

Funny you bring up living somewhere warm - that's 100% something I plan to do!   I went to Costa Rica last year with the family for a vacation and LOVED it there!
