My properties there have been pretty stable with very little turn over although I would highly suggest doing a thorough tenant selection as with any rental.  

Most cash investors will take anything at the right price but big red flags would be major roads/ freeways, backing commercial or heavy duty power lines, and houses that are too small for the area, lately it seems popular to flip 3br 800-900 sqft houses which would be a pretty cramped home for most people, usually the buyers there are owner occupants.

They are pretty aggressive with their marketing - as soon as I signed up for a free account, I started getting e-mails about once a day telling me how much value I could get from a premium membership.

Pretty rare.

It’s pretty simple, if you can make a legitimate claim that it’s your primary residence there’s not reason cmhc won’t insure the loan.I’m pretty shocked a mortgage broker would give that point of view, it’s flat out wrong.

The returns can be pretty consistent whether the market goes up or down. 

If it meets my Cash Flow criteria with that then it’s probably a pretty good deal.
