Their systems, professionalism, communication & ability to resolve issues that arise when they come up is above anyone else in the industry in my opinion.

Hi everyone, I don't post here often so apologies if this is in the wrong spot.

Which part of the industry ? 

This has always been the case, but the industry is taking strides to make it more fluid.Investor Sellers can choose to pay some or all of the buyer's agent commission (that's not new) but this can no longer be advertised through the local MLS AND this must go through the seller to the agent versus through the listing agent like it did in the past.Investor buyers must be signed with an agent to step foot in listed homes.

I've recently been getting ceiling paints that go on pink and dry white to make it easier to see what spots were missed.

Paying cash the location tends to not be as strong say if 3 million cash small to mid suburban spot versus 6 million leveraging strong suburban to fringes of urban core.4.

Some of the help offered here is accurate and some of the help offered is a bit offFor most cash out refinance loans on investment properties the Max leverage offered is 75% LTV (You may find 80% but that really isn't industry standard) Which at a 250k "As is" value your max loan amount would be $187,500.00 If you purchased the property for 165k and renovated it for 30k you are all in for 195k Since I am assuming the property is owned free and clear the $187,500 (minus closing costs let's call it 5% of the loan amount) can be used to pay down your debt.

My passion lies in real estate investment, and I am currently working on becoming a successful real estate investor in the Halifax/HRM area.Growing up, I was fortunate enough to learn the ins and outs of the real estate industry from my father, who owned and managed 65 units.

Sounds like you as well as them are in a tough spot.

I know condo prices here don't usually go up a lot, but I'm hoping to find a good spot.
