But I've hit the annoyance factor most reach in their 50s when owning rental properties about 20 years sooner.I am at work coordinating inspections and post inspection, was the appraisal done and could you email it to me, this lender gave me a 3.25% rate while you locked me at 4.0% LOL all of this and I haven't even started receiving a dime of cash flow.Illiquidity is the best feature of passive real estate investing, the 2nd feature being diversification (among asset types, exit strategies, sub-strategies, geography, risk, sponsors, etc.) you cannot do this if you are actively managing rentals.When you are 65-75 years old planning your estate, do you want to leave your heirs (who probably don't know or don't want to know anything about real estate) a bunch of physical houses, tenants, property managers, mortgages, online logins, LLCs, etc.

For that reason (& other reasons like no one was meeting even online), I started Real Estate Rocks. 

I have just started in a 3-day training for the Lee Arnold broker certification program and thus far just completed the online material required for preparation. 

They are for long term wealth building and the goal has to be to get them Paid off as quickly as possible you then will start to see real cash flow.. a stable of max leverage rentals anywhere is not going to move the needle on income to you in the first five years.Jay - thanks for jumping in,  I appreciate your perspective, and I don’t expect SFR rentals to be a cash-flow machine in the short term.

I am a 24 year old who's employed in the CAF and looking to getting into real estate, more specifically BRRRR.After looking online for quite some time I've noticed how high Canadian real estate is and I wonder if it is even worth getting into.

Thanks so much for posting all this info I had been looking at Apke Land or Land Investing Online, while they give lots of free information if you really want in depth or access to their letters you have to buy their course.

If you’re thinking about diving in, I say go for it—but maybe don’t start by living in a closet.

Once Dave chimes in I think you'll have a better perspective on what that could be...

You add your coverage yourself online and can see all your properties listed on one screen to manage them.

Maybe it's in my head but sometimes there are two LVP advertised online with the same thickness, but in real life one feels obviously thinner/thicker.
