I have been lurking on here for some time, I have lots of questions to ask, but first want to join this community and introduce myself.A little bit about myself, I am a 31 year old husband and father of two, living in Toronto (Ajax), Canada.

I'm Josh, father of two young kids and husband.

I started with 3/2/2 houses as my father had 3 that he bought in the '80's, so I am comfortable with them.

A banker not too long ago asked when my 'daddy' was going to come co-sign the documents (my father wasn't involved in the deal at all)

David Schneiderhey dave,although i dont have many of my own properties i know my father hires general contractors and then pays them by the job and not the hour (many will milk the clock).

My father just got elected as a commissioner for our county.

I still help my father time to time as he is involved in the Windows/Glazing industry focusing on Residential and Commercial Storefronts.

I have managed my father's properties and have invested in condo rentals.

Can't do owner-occupy right now;elderly father is very ill.

Hi everyone, My father recently gifted me the house I grew up in, and I found out that there is no insurance on it.
