My name is Wes and I live about an hour north of Toronto, Ontario, Canada.Looking to get into real-estate investing with long term rentals, BRRR, and House hacking.Currently looking to also find other other local people to chat to about real-estate and how to get started in our currently price inflated Ontario market.Let me know if you're in my area!!

If you have a high 7 rate then it might be beneficial in the long run to pay it down if you don't want to put it in a 4% savings account or CD.  

You’ll get a better return over the long-term by putting your money in the stock market.

Just be willing and prepared to make it a long-term investment to get you mentally and financially through any bumps in the market going forward.Good luck! 

It is fine as long as you disclose in the listings that there will be other guests on the property.  

I'd also think about long term-do you want to share your property with tenants and how will it affect resale value down the road? 

I just think ultimately you’ll be happier in the long run.

@Nathan Gesner Yes, I'm fairly confident if we were to hold long term, we'll do just fine. 

AirbnB, long term rentals, how large is the house,  how many rooms... your message should be extremely specific.And do not neglect Pinterest.
