I took the house on vacant possession as it is full tented with the basement apartment and the three bedrooms upstairs.

How do i take complete possession of property..Do i have the right to change locks to property

From what I've been told, they are great people and great tenants, but if I take possession of the house, I'd like to increase the rents to be somewhat closer to market rate.

This is your property and ultimately YOU decide who will be taking possession.

Several properties in a land trust, just the cost to clear them in the land court can cost a small fortune and before anything is sold You could always market them yourself if they are in your possession.

You need to get possession at the close of the deal. 

., they just have to possess cross boarder real estate and/or business experiences (wholesaling would actually be regular income, not investment/passive income, and would create different criteria for a Canadian earning foreign income).   

I have a renter who paid a deposit, took possession of the keys and signed a 1year lease but now is talking about backing out and not moving in.

Even if you don't have keys you can still take possession back.

Investors, homeowners and mortgage brokers found committing occupancy fraud possess a few basic commonalities;Homeowners who claimed OO when in fact it was intended as a rental occupied by a tenant from the start.Homeowners who claim OO but instead have a family member occupy the residence in their place.Investors who claim OO to get lower rates when in fact they have a primary residence elsewhere.Mortgage brokers who falsify records in order to obtain loan approval from the lender.You claimed I have "publicly admitted to committing fraud."
