My name is Wes and I live about an hour north of Toronto, Ontario, Canada.Looking to get into real-estate investing with long term rentals, BRRR, and House hacking.Currently looking to also find other other local people to chat to about real-estate and how to get started in our currently price inflated Ontario market.Let me know if you're in my area!!

Living closer to work saves time and money.

Quote from @Juan Perez: Greetings,My first home was paid off over a year ago, and I am now living in my recently purchased 2nd home.

While you may be willing to live without heat/ac or hot water for a week.

I too live in Asheville, so Sapphire was closer than Cashiers and Highlands.

Live off of equity as you sell or live off cashflow.

Buyers don't look for financing and its foreign so they don't jump on a forsale listing on zillow.I've had the best (only) luck with zillow rental adds,   starting with the pitch;  rent to own, live in a great home while you pay off owning it.
