They offer networking opportunities, education, and local insights for landlords.4.

Since this opportunity came up, I've begun to take real estate more seriously as a path to financial freedom.

Even still, it could be said that I've still lost money due to my time on the tools instead of prospecting as a real estate agent (the cost of lost opportunity).If you can truly do 80%-90% of the work yourself (at acceptable quality levels) and you aren't sacrificing your time where you can get better returns for your efforts, then yes, it can work even up here in Canada.

I'd love an opportunity to meet up soon.

Great tools out there to evaluate the density of rentals, houses sold/for sale like Zillow and Redfin can give you a great perspective on these and help guide your decisions!

Real-estate Rookie here, I am going to try to make this as concise at possible.There is a mixed commercial unit for sale in my market that I have had my eye on for awhile.

I tried the Reia and it's basically a giant sales pitch

It all started when my wife's college friend offered me an opportunity to invest in a commercial property.

Death, divorce, fire, home sale, floods,layoffs, etc.
