Try investing in another part of the province. 

@Kevin ManzI was wrong, some of our provinces were prior to 2009, as early as 2007, but ALL required HE after 2009.

Try and find a purchase and sale contract for your province and have your lawyer review it.

The law in the province it's in dictates that you can only do a 2% rental increase per year.

Most information I’ve came across is in other provinces that don’t have the same requirements, so cost will be different. 

While most provinces recognise boarders under their tenancy acts, renting by the room, pending the number of rooms and whether the property is owner occupied, may be regulated by local by-laws.

Also, since the value of properties (for taxation purposes) in the province of Ontario are only re-assessed every four years (most recently in January, 2016), and the increase in value from the last assessment (four years ago), is phased in over the next four years, it takes anywhere from seven to eight years for a new property owner to actually be paying much higher property taxes.

Having a certain level of certification is needed in my province to be able to work on whole sales and such.

Several of us invest in multiple provinces and in the U.S.A. as well.

My initial plan is to get my feet wet there (I have a friend who wants to partner up who lives there, so he’s available to help with some of the challenges of me being out of province).
