Hi Shannon, He was living with his father who is elderly but his name was not on any of the transaction or escrow paper work.Also I spoke with another real estate attorney he mentioned, since this sale was a done by one agent (I had to use the sellers agent ) The realtor has failed to do her Fiduciary Duty in protecting the rights of the sellers' which in this case my wife and I.

Outside of a few major centres (Vancouver, Toronto, MTL, Calgary, etc) you do not have density to sustain a wholesaling business (if it is your only source of income);Mortgage arrears/delinquency  - Mortgage arrears in Canada are historically far lower (<1%) than in the U.S.A. and delinquencies are less than half the amount of arrears.  

I was looking to do a cash-out refi to take money out while locking in lower rates, but now that the properties are in the S-Corp, I am unable to transfer back into my name to refi without creating a taxable event.I am wondering if there are any strategies to moving these out in a tax advantaged way (I expect there will be some cost to doing so).Some strategies that have come up in other conversations are:1) Form LLC and issue a note to the S Corp with the properties as collateral... then if S Corp defaults on the note... the properties will be transferred with out triggering taxes (although cost basis would remain the same)2) Have appraiser apply discounted valuations on properties due to lack of marketability (I am only a 50% owner of the S-Corp).
