As others have mentioned there are ways to get properties with only 5%/10% down, however in my opinion this strategy is the most useful for a pure buy&hold play.If you're looking to BRRRR then putting 5% down isn't optimal, because you'll be hit with CMHC fees right off the bat, and you'll have to increase your equity in the property past 20% anyways before you can touch any of the appreciation you forced through renovations.

Not right, but could work.... or, get one that's a touch too big, get the right tool and swage the supply line out to make the shutoff fit.... or, use the size conversions Michael Karl suggested to find the right piece to make the connection.

@RJ Bates III there was a recent thread that touched on this:  https://www.biggerpockets.com/forums/760/topics/232758-investor-friendly-attorneys

It really had me fooled as being real tiles till I touched it.
