Thank you for the advice, I have since looked into local laws. We are still going back and forth on the debate for charges hopefully all this can be cleared up soon.

Good Morning. I am having an issue with my Landlord. I rent a shared apartment.

We signed a 3 Month Rental agreement (Apr-Jun)where I paid my rent in full and we discussed the possibility of extending nearer the end of the term. and that I would let him know if i can extend. Due to COVID effecting my residency i no know i will have to leave. I explained my circumstances with him prior that i would know once the gov released an update. He came by the house on the 1st to collect rent, I explained that it is certain i will be leaving at the end., Later at work(Nightshift) the gov released the update early hrs of the 2nd, and I sent my notice in ([email protected]). He is now charging 260$ of my deposit for the late notice. It is signed in the agreement theses would be charged. My question is what option for trying to get my deposit back? As this money is NEEDED/ESSENTIAL for leaving the country

I would also like to get views from other landlords. What do you think/ what would you do (If i was your Tennant, No judgment)

I feel like this is a lot of money for what i would consider a petty reason. Even more so during a pandemic. (Yes I'm playing the COVID card)

I have been following and learning from BP and other resources to become an investor myself. I am aware it is not good to jump on the defensive and to look at it from the landlord's perspective.

Hi Everyone. I would like to start attending events and meetups. Does anyone know of any in the Vancouver area? or is anyone hosting events,

Thanks :)

Hi Michael and Wayne.

Do you guys visit Whistler often? As you are only a short drive away. I currently live in Whistler after moving from Scotland and have been learning about REI. If I could help anyone with local knowledge or questions about the area-id be happy to do what I can.

Thanks

Great day everyone

I am new to all aspects of REI and live in Whistler BC, At the moment I am working a night office job where on average I have around 5 hrs of free time where I learn and increase my knowledge. If possible I would like to use this time to help anyone in the BC area. I have good around technical pc skills,(MS Office, Photoshop, video editing, various client tracking software) It doesn't need to be important or interesting. Just anything to help.

Hi @Willi Schweizer,

I am in the same boat as you brand new, what I have found that has helped me expand my knowledge is a lot of reading and listening to podcasts, At the moment when listening to a podcast. I then research from the ground up one section/part until I understand what is included. (e.g all the different financing methods, local properties, and values, what to renovate)

Not sure I am the best person to answer,but this is what i am doing.

Thank you, @Julie Toh

I am currently listening to the podcast daily. and re-searching further into topics I am unsure about. I am looking at deals both in Canada and back home in my local area (Scotland).

Hi Everyone

I am completely new to BP and real estate. I am in Canada on a work visa but will have the option of permanent residency. I currently live in the Whistler area but will likely move to Vancouver or the victoria. Where/what would be the best resource/re-search that I could look for to expand my knowledge.

Thank you and its great to read about opportunities around the country

Good day,

I am completely new to real estate and would like to know what my options would be.

I currently live and work in BC Canada, on a visa (with residency options). I was born in Scotland and would like to know how I would look for an investor/partner. would it be best to look into the market back home where I have local knowledge and a passport to? or to where I reside in a foreign country. Sorry if it is badly worded,

Thank You

Brad
