If you're looking to invest in real estate on the West coast of BC, you're probably assuming that house prices have been pushed beyond a point that allows cashflow with a traditional 80% LTV mortgage.

Before blasting me with comments telling me that's dumb,  hear me out....I often hear people pushing for excellence,  pushing to do better,  be better and achieve more. 

My wife recently became a realtor too, which allows us to push ahead in different ways.
