I think I would recommend people start class b but I recognize the challenges to get the numbers to work.  

This is the fork where I'm not sure if I'd be good to get some CRE exp and invest in learning about how to review deals for the next 2-3 years, or focus on generating revenue for investment purposes and watch how things are done as a LP.My personality more aligns with networking, reaching out to people, connecting, navigating difficult situations and finding solutions that work.

While I doubt I'll be investing here (terrified that property taxes and the pension debt will ultimately cripple property values), I'm always interested in meeting new people.

Chances are they are paying others who are not as accommodating as you (amazing how people will make those car payments while jeopardizing their homes) - and it's time for them to move on to housing they can afford and to a tenant that does not require you to subsidize them.  

The list of people who helped me - took a risk on me, taught me what they knew, showed me an example of what not to do, gave me their time, believed in me, and even those who questioned me, broke contracts with me, owed me money - is innumerable, and I'm grateful to every one of them.Today was an exciting day, and there will be more like it in the months ahead!

It sounds like a few people on this thread don't really understand how PMC's operate or why they may charge extra fees.

I do know one of the people who works for me has a 2 year work permit (temporary) and she and her husband were able to buy a place in Alberta.BC and ON are very tenant friendly.
