Keep in mind, the region is immensely sought after, leading to notably low capitalization rates.Positive cash flow from a rental property becomes challenging; however, there remains potential for substantial returns through appreciation.

My idea to buy a home is to get an 80% LTV 1st mortgage from a bank, take over that mortgage and give the seller a second mortgage for 50% of the 1st mortgage balance because I need some cash to cover the payments, which the amount of cash would be more than the remaining equity in the home.

If you look at all the posts, they are being artificially inflated with fake upvotes.

Typically, residents remain unaware unless they observe property tours or inspections.

You would pay us corporate tax rate, but the retained earnings could remain in the company and not be repatriated to Canada.If you are moving to the U.S.A. and will not be keeping a presence in Canada, then once you move you should not be paying Canadian tax on your world-wide income.

Yeah, I could be off, with inflation and all, prices are getting crazy these days.

However, starting from Dec 2018, ABC Baltimore stopped paying us rental guarantees and the house remained unfinished without required city permits to rent the house.

To avoid actually collecting money every week the lease agreement stated that the term was week to week, but if you paid in advance for 4 weeks worth of rent on the 1st of the month, you would receive the remaining days of the month at the discounted rate of being free. 

The remaining rent ($1,634) is recognized as rental income.

That is my hedge against inflation, and my slow term wealth build.
