It's not a magic bullet to solve all operational needs, but the process works very well when a remote team member at a lower labor rate fits into the needs of a scaling business.

We now underwrite our deals with higher maintenance and are ok with lower cash flow for the first few years while we play catch-up with deferred maintenance.  

My view is there is more protection on a wrap than a sub to and with the right disclosures and underwriting can be an alternative option. 

Both Ecobee and Honeywell are great options for smart thermostats so you can remotely control the temperature settings and set temperature ranges. 

We're based in Calgary, where there’s a lot of pre-construction happening, and we’re aiming to buy a pre-con property as our primary residence.As a first-time homebuyer, I’m weighing two options: 1.

This multifaceted approach can often shield them better against market downturns, providing a more resilient investment option. 

IMO better options- If you don't need the money in the next 10+ years look into Annuities I'm seeing 7-9% and you don't have to participate in market downturns.

If you tie the bonus to a new lease, a bad employee will lower standards to find tenants quickly.

The other option is to find a partner with some experience and use that on the loan.

This will show you that people have options to go out and pick another house over your place.
