How easy is it for a Canadian to get their Mexican residency?  

@Robert Gorra - I've had a similar experience where I've had a really hard time with getting GC's to even give me an estimate, and the few that have have been way overpriced (ie, they want me to put in $20k of cabinets in a budget flip) or have had their prices go up by about 40% and still not give me a firm price when I try to nail down the scope of work.

Also, from what I read in Bloomberg, midterm rentals near major hospitals can sometime command a decent premium.. especially if they include some nice furnishings.Little Tweaks Count: Even minor upgrades, like new door locks or a fresh coat of paint, can help you justify a stronger rent.Driving for Dollars & Networking..

If this is your first deal, it's probably best to get a lawyer to make sure you're doing everything properly.

I know a lot of high income people that buy rentals and get a study done, and that helps.

Suggesting to them buying their house for a wholesale range offer or lower dependent on the extent of the rehab, then having a contract in place that gives them a percentage of the profit to help get them back on their feet, paying off debts etc.

Connect with a local architect who specializes in new construction duplexes and get their feedback on the highest and best use of the land, as is.

to get more than one - or even more than two?

It may sound nice to pay a 6% management fee but the extra fees can add up to be more than the other company that charges 10% with no additional fees.

Nice!
