Correct me if I am wrong but leverage isn't for the average joe when it comes to buying notes.Having watched RE for lots of years, my view is that appreciation sneaks up on you when you take the long view owning property.
Ryan McDaniel Comparing real estate opportunities (cash flow vs appreciation)

Everything has a certain degree of risk.The difference is the millionaires and billionaires take the most calculated risks possible and win more times than they lose.You cannot eliminate the risk only make it smaller.I agree on cash flow.Never pay based on POTENTIAL or PROJECTIONS.I can show you many developers that lost their shirts because they predicted x,y,z would happen when they built out their projects.In appreciation games it's a crap shoot.Some win and many you never hear about lose.Nobody wants to brag when they lose everything yet those are some of the most valuable stories to tell.I would also say with cash flow to watch out for CURRENT NUMBERS.

Howie NA Converting to Lofts
19 May 2019 | 10 replies
anywhere in Toronto but there are more in artistic districts, I used to watch the Now magazine listings but this was years back - "lofts" can have different meanings in Toronto - anything with one room might be listed as such (from a bachelor apt, to a real artist loft, to a condo style “loftâ€, or condo or apt “with (upper level) loftâ€, to a super expensive Donald Trump one room hotel style “loft†condo with room service)… some lofts may be simply listed as apts, and some are zoned for work/live use and geared toward artists but not many are listed with that much detail. there is a wide variance in quality and types of lofts, some are unfinished, others are finished with exposed brick etc.if you dig through Now magazine and other papers and can't find them, hit me up with a PM and I'll try to get you some more details. probably the fastest way to find some is to drive through artistic areas and see what's above and between the storefronts. otherwise some are in converted buildings mainly downtownish but at least one as far as Mississauga so just about anywhere goes. you can see if you're driving downtown some buildings that look like old factories on the outside but have different coloured curtains hanging in all the windows.a few but not all are offered at discounted rates to artists because most probably don't make much money - so if you're looking into it make sure it is profitable for you if you wanted to buy and hold for renting. it is probably entirely possible to create loft spaces in just about any building but if you have a particular vision in mind it might require certain types of buildings. many artists looking for work spaces are not terribly picky about their surroundings as long as they have the required space they need for their work and basic needs like kitchen/washroom etc. any more Qs let me know!
