He k out Barry Maguire in Edmonton.

I haven't been to one yet but I think one of these Meetups may be a great place to start in the Edmonton Area.http://www.meetup.com/revenue/http://www.meetup.com/Edmonton-Cashflow-Meetup/There's not many Canadians here, but some are very experienced and very helpful.

I find Edmonton to be unique in that there seems to be a niche market for high-end properties around the university as the hospital and LRT station are on the same campus.I don't believe there is a substitute for knowing your target market or working with a partner that does.Do you have any plans to move back to Canada in the near future?

Justin, are you looking to build in Edmonton only or Calgary may work?

Out on the Prairies (exceptions possible for Calgary, Edmonton and Winnipeg), across northern ON & PQ, and in the BC interior you will have similarly small and disperse populations.  

, I am living in TX but hail from Vancouver and also lots of family in Edmonton and north.

Its a 3 bedroom, 2 storey condo, in Edmonton Alberta.

Edmonton market now is renters market, so if you found a good tenant you need to catch him before he goes to see something else.

Potentially buy and hold one or more owner financed deals in Edmonton.2.

I have not got into investing yet although I am serious, I've read many books , listen to audio tapes every day in the car, watch those corny "flip that house" shows.I am 20 years old just starting to build credit, By next spring at this time I will have made 110K Gross, hoping to save a nice big chunk for a downpayment..My dilemma is, I live in Edmonton Alberta , houses are at insane rate because of the oil boom , houses are going for 300k+ , As a first time home buyer I just think this is just to big of a step...
