I just recently met a branch manager at BMO Harris.

The risks in investing in depreciating markets are, but not limited to:Tenant quality (may not be great)Size tenant pool (potentially decreasing)Risk of being forced to decrease rents (may turn your cash flow numbers into losses)Exit strategy (loss of property value, fewer selling options, etc.)Loss of property value and loss of rents (point of investing is to actually profit...)May not be able to survive a market crashHope that helps!

Hey Kera, there are many more questions and answers to this this huge and exciting topic and you'll need to invest some more time with awesome people like Peter Harris and Michael Blank.

They need the revenue to survive.  

TD does 25% down but they only do East Coast....RBC is 40% down with low maximums...BMO Harris also not West Coast.Private lenders you can do 25% down but you'll be at almost 9% interest on 3/1ARMs...

@Jenelle Harris every landlord is different and state laws vary.

@Dean Harris @Tina Sandoval are both with Crestcore owned by @Douglas Skipworth.

This is a "not for profit" goal...Work with some great people that I have met here on BP to get some deals going.Lastly have a great time and survive motorcycling through Vietnam with @J.

Specifically, the donors are the sole surviving child and cousin of a deceased party.
