Financing without a 9 to 5 Job
Are there any ways to secure financing on investment properties without a typical 9 to 5 job?
I see people with hardly any income, securing 3 properties in a span of months and was wondering how they are doing it.
Down payments are no problem for me, but qualifying for mortgages is an issue.
I understand people may use VTB's etc... but are there other ways of creative financing in the ontario market?

@AJ Dhillon In addition to what's already been mentioned. You can take over the seller's payments, giving you until the mortgage comes up for renewal to qualify, bring on a partner, or resell.
