I am a slow learner.

I don't see demand slowing down quickly any time soon, so I don't see the reason for the fuss about an ominous drop in prices.  

You will find lots of useful information on the site ... some of it quite U.S.A. specific, but much of it universally applicable.I understand the economy is slowing in Calgary - upside, housing prices will start to decline - but why would you head to the most expensive city in the country .... where a 4/2 bungalow can run over 1-million?    

Lost rent will be much more expensive than jumping on the slow moving attorney wagon. 

Didn't take too long and I'm slow in December. 

Also I could not help but thinking that when the rental market slow down.

Take it slow and find the right lady.

I've admittedly been very slow to get into the forums as I've never really used a forum before and don't completely know what to expect from it.  

Make sure any upgrades you do are very durable and only things that will save rather than cost you money in the long run, are typical for low income properties, and are thing slow income applicants value.  

Rather than slow things down by going to the HOA & request they do the subfloor repair I was going to go ahead & just do it myself since it was estimated to be less than $500ish (all with HOA approval prior to starting the repair of course).
