How fast (the amount of risk you are willing to take) is up to you.  

Current sales went down but prices are still climbing.We recently invested in Victoria as it has the correct economic fundamentals in place (GDP, Unemployment rate, transportation and population growth)Banks in Canada have always been careful as far as lending (which has sheltered us from the 2008 real estate crash) and there’s no signs of seeing that change in the near future.

Im just hoping it does because the numbers are looking good so far IMO. 2bed 1bath615 sq ft homeArv: $215,000Repairs: $35-$40k (that’s just from her sending me pics of the inside, and me looking from the outside) Initial offer: $80k I told her that the price is subject to change after an actual inspection of the home and we have a contractor run some accurate numbers on the rehab and I’m going to put it in the contract and she gladly agreed.

Financing is in order, now i just need to find a deal and a contractor that can work fast.

Realistically, how fast can a closing be?

This small drop in the Dow doesnt change that.

how many people do you think work at a fast food restaurants?

I'll look into that first.Just curious...why fuss (in this situation) with trying to change zoning on the property or deal with city permitting?

Owners are less likely to move generally, and any sign of distress results in them getting a lot of mail, making it hard to stand out.As far as changing your message, it is less about keywords, and more about creating interest.

This alone will change your figures...guess you can't change their calculator...Discovering CAP rate on a residential property is completely pointless.
