I have not done it.I have too many tenants for that.Also different tenants have varying religious beliefs and some have no beliefs so I wouldn't want to get involved with that.In real estate when I first became an agent and a broker there were two hot buttons to always stay away from when doing deals RELIGION and POLITICS.My tenants would complain as well.I want to keep the relationship business.I fix the properties problems when the arise and believe it or not you are ahead of 80% of landlords if you do just that.Most won't fix things or get emotional over rent not being paid and get a handyman to screw stuff up trying to repair it.You can do a charity that is not tied to your business and give back that way.

As a Landlord: Be very thorough in your screening process (credit, criminal, hot check and eviction checks), call references, document income, and keep very clear records.

The market in that particular area is red hot right now and I believe that I can make much better money on the house if it is fully upgraded..

I am looking for advice on where people think a "hot" real estate and rental market is in Canada, which may be worth investing in.

My market is fairly hot for new wholesalers, so this was my way to separate my self, I WILL do the extra work to trace down these sent back to me.The deal looks to be turning out great so far with fairly little work.

The market here in Washington state is exceptionally hot, however I am also banking on the fact that there are opportunities out there.
