Account Closed First Property in a tough market: Buying out of Country/Province?
25 October 2016 | 1 reply
Which happens to be province with laws that are absolutely terrible when it comes to landlording.For example:You cannot collect a security depositYou cannot ask for first and last months rent (although people do, i'm sure)Tenants can pay consistently late by up to 3 weeks and if you cannot prove to the court that their consistent lateness has not cause you financial harm, well too bad for you.You can't charge late feesEviction is almost impossible - even if they completely go against the lease i.e pets, airbnb the property when you forbid it, consistent late payments etc.The province really treats landlord like they are a charity and that people landlord out of the goodness of their hearts, when reality it is a business.So here is my question,Is it a good idea to invest in your first property out of the Country?
