That combination is not just the domain of the residential housing market, but also the multi-residential property market in Vancouver, as investors, big and small look to get a piece of the action.According to Avison Young’s Fall 2015 BC Multi-Family Investment Report, demand for multi-residential properties in Metro Vancouver and throughout the province remained exceedingly strong in the first half of 2015.

IMO it's a fluff piece.

A simple option to purchase a piece of property is usually not deemed to pass the risk of loss thresh hold.  

The best piece of advice that I can give you is to identify the types of rentals you would like to have in your portfolio based on your target cap rate or irr  and TAKE ACTION. 

The critical piece here is the timing.3 months isn't overly realistic for buying, fixing and selling a SFH.  

Since you're in North Carolina (I'm jealous - I REALLY want to move to Charlotte), and I'm in Arizona, you can take this piece of advice for what it is rather than suspect it's a sales pitch. : )As you begin your venture in REI, I would strongly recommend seeking out and meeting with a mortgage professional.  

We will also be sending out a 15,000 piece mailing campaign to the Indy market here over the next few months.

Subtle detail pieces have always worked well for me.  

I had a piece of vacant land that finally sold and after paying realtor, etc I was left with about 76K.

My goal is to close my 1st deal in the first half of 2016.Thanks in advance for your feedbackIt's an exciting process, getting ready to purchase your first piece of property!
