I’m currently exploring real estate investment opportunities in Canada as an international investor.

The big opportunity here is creating a scenario where both parties come out ahead, especially in situations where the seller might otherwise walk away with little or no proceeds.If you’re considering moving forward with this kind of structure, I’d be happy to assist with running the numbers or exploring funding options to make it happen.

Of course just make sure to check with the town zoning laws on ADU's etc. 

Consider a market that you visit often, have family in, went to college at, spent time in the past.You will have a better sense of what the good / bad parts of town are compared to a city you never visited.Best of Luck!

I am also active with Flips and own a few 4 plexes...Im a licensed NM Realtor would be happy to help set up a few searches, look at properties (Virtually as well), and tell you more about specific areas of town with the pro's and con's of each. 

Is it a small town with one factory supporting the town?

Some offerr condos, towns and sfr and all do well because they are closer to Disney.

Currently exploring investing in South-East Spain (Almeria) for STR.From what I read as US-resident, it's much more advantageous to invest via a Spanish SL (able to deduct costs in the tax + less transfer tax in the purchase). 

So, consider the source when receiving advice from out of town contributors.
