So if I understand this correctly, by qualifying to extend the 5 year rule to 10 yrs, $250k if single or $500k if married of proceeds from this sale would be exempt from capital gains? 

We both knew we were aligned in our goals and had a clear understanding of our respective roles in the deal from the outset.If seller financing is part of the equation, look for someone who’s not only experienced with creative financing but also understands how to manage the potential risks involved.

I would love to chat with someone who is a mortgage broker to understand your day to day workflows a little better.

I am starting with a small budget(100k-120k) so trying to understand which neighborhoods I should focus on, would love to get recommendations if you have :) I live south of the city and only like to go about 30 minutes away from home. 

This would be my first real estate investment, making the decision even more critical.I understand that backing out would mean losing the $2,000 earnest deposit.

I understand that with traditional mortgages, it is unlikely to receive lending that incorporates speculative renovation costs.

Many people start out active because they want exposure to real estate and don't know that you can start out passive - you can effectively hire the asset manager and supply capital to the investment.You can have great success as an active or a passive investor - but it is important to understand the difference and to select whichever option matches your skills and resources the best.Good luck!
