One of the key challenges I’m facing is understanding the financing options available to someone without Canadian residency or a local credit history.From my research, it seems that a 35% down payment is often required, with interest rates around 7.5-8.5% for non-residents.

When I had my own real estate practice, I advised landlords on tenant issues, negotiated cash for keys, and filed evictions. 

I’m still refining my approach there, but having the right team in place is one of the biggest keys to scaling sustainably.Definitely looking forward to staying in touch and exchanging ideas as we both grow in this space.

Do you have any idea of the price point you can afford and are you looking for turn-key properties or something along the lines of a "fixer upper"?
