Less transparency generally hurts consumers as opposed to helping them. 

As a CPA and real estate investor who is a general partner in two syndications, I want to share some practical advice to set realistic expectations.

The definition of “livable” or “finished” space can be surprisingly specific.In many markets, including here in Arizona, appraisers and agents generally want the space to be finished in a manner consistant with the rest of the home and serviced by a more permanent heating and cooling source.

I can have my clients give me feed back if you want to send me the address via PMAlso I got stuck with a few props there when my first balt client imploded ( of course i was in them at wholesale levels) but I exited with ASHLAND auctions and we recouped generally speaking.Also Section 8 there pays a very large amount compared to most markets if your forced to keep it I would go that route you can get 1600  to 2k on section 8. 

Here is my case for over valued in general:- over a decade in f unprecedented price increases- rates have doubled significantly raising the cost of a high LTV purchases, but in most markets there have been no corresponding price decrease

Most foreign buyers are high net worth individuals who want to park their money there in a safe haven and they don't need BP.No restrictions apply to American buyers in the countries they'd generally want to buy, including those mentioned by Federico and many other popular countries.When it comes to Spain specifically, some more conservative banks will ask you for a 40% downpayment (that would be the maximum) but that isn't the rule.

I love the concept especially given the need in your market for storing things like snow machines, boats, rvs etc, but also for repair or general "fab shops".As long as you are seeing the demand in your specific market for these spaces, and perhaps its worth getting some leases signed up prior to breaking ground but thats a personal preference thing, I think the numbers look promising if the use case is there.

So I guess the question is how long will it take for the general public to realize that 7% is the "new norm"?

In MA, tenants generally have 30 days to pay repair costs.

All joke aside, I think Nova Scotia in general is a great market to be in.
