Still, my soft heart left my head feeling pretty rough, like a "failure".I don't think with your experience and 17(!)

Hi @Matthew Mclean, feel free to reach out via email to any of the real estate-savvy CPAs here on BiggerPockets.

Anyone out there feeling this?

I’ve joined some of these before & they often feel like sales pitches or marketing ploys, but I won’t be pumping people for information or trying to make a mailing list or any of that.

I'd be happy to connect further and see how I can help, feel free to message me. 

Hope that helps, and feel free to reach out if you want to dive into this more!

They said they'd accept a 6 month term instead, but they're not being very forthcoming about what their sales record has been (I asked for the last 12 months just to get an idea, but they ignored the question :( ) and I'm getting a not-so-great feeling about working with them....The home is 2-stories, attached garage, 4bd 3ba, 2269 sqft and sits on a corner lot with a huge backyard (lot is approx .13 acres or 5662.8 sqft).

Feel free to reach out anytime if you want to chat more!

You might find the answers to your questions there but I know that the search function is less then optimal so feel free to send me a DM if you don't easily find what you're looking for.I've never bothered commenting much about Canada because, until recently, it made no sense for US investors to invest in Canada: much less favorable mortgage conditions if they could even get one, much more expensive prices on average and much less profitable on average.

Also I feel that previous owner realtor inspector and HoA the ones should held responsible for this.
