@Ralph NoackOntario is huge.. you can drive 20 hours and still be in Ontario.. you need to narrow down to Region..And btw you can go to CBRE and find Canadian Cap Rates in major cities.. they release new info every quarter..Your welcome

A bit about me: I Live in Buffalo, New York and want to invest here (or nearby).

As far as city employees or something similar I am more worried about.

Hi all, just starting out and looking to buy a duplex in the Cottonwood Heights area near Salt Lake City.

@Israel R.If it's not too late do not use ERA in Grove City..

I think a mass mailing to commercial property managers and brokers in your target cities.... maybe buy the list from some associations...?  

I live in New York and everywhere I look around here is too expensive.

City of Charleston is starting to regulate them more and more.

lastly, Cedar Rapids requires new landlords to register with the city and take a training class that will put you in the same room as many fellow landlords. 

My fingerprinting and clearance by the "agencies" was completed without any issue (as expected).What can I do to help a prospective landlord in my new city (hi there NOVA) not view me as a risk?
