So I had heard of this technique of becoming an assistant for a small fee and having full access to the MLS.

They sold me advice (cds, "books", forms) that were out-of-date, laced with illegal techniques, and methods that just didn't work.

Guys, new here but a long time investor in Atlanta & South Florida. Been in real estate 10+ years. I really want to leverage marketing and ramp it up! There is a sneaky suspicion that says the next 5 years will...

@Hadar Orkibi what marketing techniques have you tried?

I do not know anything about the laws in Toronto regarding these techniques so please research them thoroughly before proceeding.

I may steal this technique.

You can network and discover other techniques and see what other people are doing to find great properties here.Wholesalers - keep in mind that if you can see it on realtor.com, redfin/zillow/etc.  

But, I believe that technique is dependent on buying the property below market value and then achieving forced appreciation through renovation.

It's a technique he used and said he watched an agent throw several other offers in the trash and accept his offer.I'm interested to hear what others think of this approach.

This reminds me of a BRRRR technique brought up with regard to refinancing where -  100% of HUD being able to be pulled sooner than 6 months (delayed financing).
