Real Estate Investment in Canada has, in recent years, been strained in terms of affordability, and other rules creating an additional barrier of entry; especially for foreign buyer.Although I am investor in Ontario and Quebec, I'm not a lawyer, nor an accountant, nor an immigration consultant, so make sure you consult with the appropriate expert for accurate information.

Or try the reverse - rehab a property to Class A standards in a Class D neighborhood and try to get a Class A or B tenant to rent it.Unfortunately, many newbie real estate investors are jumping into buying affordable Class C rentals - expecting Class A results.

Hi everyone,
I’m new to real estate investing and I’m considering getting into long-term multifamily rentals. One thing I’m trying to figure out is how to find good locations where property prices are relatively low,...

., get a higher paying job, work two jobs, go to trade school, get a higher paying degree, live in affordable area, etc...these are things that most of us did).

Most take near a year in southern Ca, but you hear of exceptions in both directions on that timeline.What some developers are doing here is leveraging the affordability issue and getting permission to build additional ADUs by designating some as affordable or semi affordable units.  

We hear from a lot of out of state investors that Milwaukee is a great place to invest in real estate due to its affordability and strong economic growth. 

That is lower than market and puts you in a cashflow-neutral situation, but it is unlikely your residents can afford that.

Basic staging with an agent usually means they give you insight into how you should:Declutter and depersonalize by removing photos and personal itemsArrange your furniture to improve the room’s flow and make it feel biggerAdd plants, move art, or re-arrange other accessoriesFull-service staging is another option if your house needs more hands-on attention.

When you add that: "The downpayment and closing costs would be one large hurdle"; I can't tell if you can only afford to do this once (thus tying up whatever you have saved) or multiple times.  

I was broke enough that I couldn't afford rent at my apartment, but fortunately my landlord didn't notice, thanks in part or in whole due to some substance abuse issues.Anyways, when visiting my mom in the neighborhood where I grew up, I had noticed this construction van at a house on our street.
