So originally I was gonna do student living which is $475 a month.

Were you originally planning to just renovate the existing SF home on the property and live in it? 

I am wondering what resources exists within BP for Canadian investors?

I own one rental house in Cypress, but with the current market I have not been able to find another existing single family home to buy that looks like a good investment. 

I put roughly 20% down on a $200k home, and am curious what steps I could take to possibly turn my original investment into a large portfolio within the next 10 years, when we're currently "low on liquid funds" after finishing up a wedding.... 

Ask me privately.Financial Highlights- Gross Potential Rent: $98,061 per month ($1,176,732 annually)- Total Income (5/1/2023-4/30/2024): $1,357,459.80- Net Operating Income: $896,896.09- Existing assumable loan: $6.7M at 5.38% fixed rate until 2029Value-Add Opportunity- Partially renovated property with potential for further upgrades- Current loss-to-lease suggests room for rent growth- Opportunity to implement operational efficienciesMarket Dynamics- Huntsville's population grew 9.4% between 2020 and 2023- Strong job growth, particularly in aerospace and defense sectors- Significant multifamily supply growth (15.9% inventory expansion in past year)Investment Strategy- Assume existing favorable financing- Implement value-add renovations to drive rent growth- Capitalize on Huntsville's robust economic expansion- Target hold period: 3-5 years to align with loan maturityRisks and Considerations- High market-wide vacancy rate (17%) due to recent supply growth- Potential for market softening due to rapid inventory expansion- Property age may require significant capital expendituresThis opportunity offers a blend of stable cash flow from the existing operations and upside potential through strategic improvements, all underpinned by Huntsville’s strong economic fundamentals.ⓘ This is not an offer, solicitation of an offer, to buy or sell securities.

The ratio above works anywhere.Step2 "Existing":Ineach town count the number of units by size.

I haven't heard of them but that doesn't mean they are not good nor exist.  

There are exceptions for very large projects where national players like MasTec (who bought IEA, one of the largest solar and wind installers in the US), exist.

@Frankie Lotrec if you have an existing loan on the property and you plan to legally convert from a 4 unit to 5 unit , you should check the loan documents because you’d essentially be converting it to a commercial property, since 5+ units is considered commercial and subject to different appraisal approaches and so it would rule out the property being considered for purchasers utilizing residential financing.
