They do offer some turnkey opportunities, but I think they are a traditional Property Management company. 

I would suggest at least 10W led lights, and have them connected to a traditional dimmer switch on the wall.

The numbers look good from a traditional sense, but the height this market at makes me nervous.

Finding the deal is typically worth 20%, so that leaves 30% that perhaps they could split with the managing partner (who is taking care of permits, legal, insurance, all the admin).What other methods could you propose to stick these guys into a real estate deal without them having to spend 2 years getting educated or birddogging/wholesaling in a market where the traditional wholesaling tactics don't work (there are NO lists to mail in Ontario due to privacy laws).Lets say they need about 40k cash boost to put their DTI and down payment funds in check, but more would be better to reduce mortgage insurance costs.

And after I move out of the place, I think I could rent the whole townhouse out on Airbnb and do well - almost certainly cash flow better than a traditional lease in that area, especially because I'll be putting either 0%, 3.5% or 5% money down to buy the house and not 20%.

I can ask but he said assume traditional bank financing is not an option.

In fact, I just run a traditional, boring rental property business.

I've always liked the idea of piers vs. traditional foundations they seem more forgiving and I suppose you don't have much of a freeze/thaw problem in your area.

I do the as you Christian, plan everything out before starting any project and make sure I have the necessary tools for the project.

My question is the same as Christian's.
