Finance Minister Mike de Jong announced new rules Tuesday aimed at ending the controversial practice of 'shadow flipping' by eliminating a means for anyone but the seller of a house to profit from real estate contract assignment.The CBC News article can be read here.Naturally, the provincial government's attempt to curb this form of racketeering in the Lower Mainland's drastically overheated housing market will only be as good as the ability to enforce it {look out for a rise in unreported "side deals"}.It also sounds like this change pretty much puts to rest any thoughts of wholesaling that does not involve purchasing, then reselling.

I am a licensed minister working for a non-profit ministry.

The interloper turned out to be the mother of the decedent who claimed her son and the seller had been "married" by her brother, the husband's uncle, who was a "minister" but not authorized under Florida law to conduct weddings. 

I mean this could actually be the vehicle that Puts Tesla over the top.. the Justice minister of Norway just ordered one.. its on Teslarati today..

@Jacques Herve You have a fixed cost (monthly lease payment) and you have no control over the landlords long term plans or intentions. 

Saw a post of old news, Ontario minister of housing looks at strengthening protections for landlords, http://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/toronto/landlord-tenant-board-rental-kingston-animals-1.3876870, I am not always in Ontario, so cannot tell.

@Mike Lambert did the Minister mention where the government might be investing instead? 

I'd look at those if I were you, and get some references; job, bank, minister, professor, accountant etc.

I am seeking to gain financial freedom so I can make my family my priority and minister full time to those in need.
