So recap... landscaping doesn't add value and I should just do the bare minimum necessary for the outside? 

I ran the numbers on the potential rent I could get after refinancing and sadly I would barely make $10 a month.

Thank you for participating in the thread, and I will keep you updated on how it goes.Cheers

I ran the numbers on the potential rent I could get after refinancing and sadly I would barely make $10 a month.

Or we have people barely able to afford who want that house with a basement apartment to rent out and offset their mortgage.I think it's great to live in such a cool city where so many people want to be.

Because contractor teams internal turmoil it barely start working after 4 month after a paid 15% of total construction fee.  

The law provides a bare minimum requirement and you often choose to go beyond that because you think it is a better solution.

Id personally pay more money for the same house if it had a bunch of built in office stuff already instead of it being a bare bedroom.

While cashflow is ideal, I'd say that if you're in a market that has a high forecasted appreciation or an expectation that rental rates are going to increase, it might be worth holding on to the property for future gains (especially considering the costs involved with selling, and buying another place)In my case, I have a condo in Toronto I'm renting out that I'm barely breaking even on, but in knowing that rental rates as well as appreciation are on a rapid rise on this side, I'm okay with not cashflowing for the first few years and enjoy the gains after that.I don't know that area at all to have much more of an opinion on this.All the best!

We don’t participate yet but we’re considering it for a couple of houses.
