Quote from @Paul De Luca: @Andre HammondWhere are these properties located?

Quote from @Roel Van de Ven: Hi Ariel, These type of markups and hidden fees are one of the reasons I got into property management. 

Canadian investors have several financing options, such as mortgages, private lenders, cross-border financing, and partnerships.

The residential manager acts as a defacto PM, but they occupy one of the rooms for free, so run your numbers.

Quote from @Daisy De Miami: Hi BP Community!

For me, being a remote landlord, the absence of vacancies is more precious than another $10 bucks, especially when that change creates a defacto risk of a move-out (that which I would rather not face).  

Has anyone used this in NY area (Buffalo , niagara ) closer to Canada border?

Just like in the good old days when actual BnB exists in the 90s....Folks that are saying it's possible in 48 is because they are early and they capture the de-regulation era and perhaps manage the property well.I'm looking at the problem from a very opposite angle.

Another angle you could consider is to diversify into different asset classes to reduce your risk, potentially continue your low tax burden and earn cashflow passively through 1031 exchanging into Delaware Statuary Trusts (DSTs). 

I like the saying that Dolf De Roos says, “The deal of a lifetime comes once a week.”A property that cashflows with a 75% cashout refi, may or may not get you to your goals quicker.
