I need to know ahead of going if they will expect me to join at the meeting :)

@Brian Burke  I was still using NCR paper and a rolodex back then.. you were WAY ahead of me my friend...  

It isn't done here often, so make sure you discuss it with a lawyer that you plan on using ahead of time so they are comfortable with it.

While I am unable to answer to any of your inquiries, I hope you find some answers and make contacts that can help.All the best in the year ahead!

SFR's have taken off in Surrey and while the prices haven't gone up as much as, say, Richmond/hot school districts, they have done well, and they've pulled ahead of MFR's over the past few years (I called that one right a few years back and bought a fixer-upper house vs a townhouse). 

So, I feel that I will come out way ahead in the end.

Perhaps, I gave the climactic ending of my message ahead of time.

Welcome to Bigger Pockets Tristan.As a new investor, you have a steep learning curve ahead of you.  

I would love to here you all advice and thanks ahead for the positive feedback

They've always got some promotions going on, the trick is to prepay as far ahead as you're comfortable with to get the discount pricing for more than a month.Also, like with all hosting providers, they try to upsell you when you checkout, so just be sure to uncheck almost all the options when you're checking out and watch as the price comes back down to earth.For domains Namecheap or GoDaddy are good.
