Worked with an investor friendly agent in Phoenix who knew the market very well and was managing his own properties.

I live in Delaware county and doesn't know the city well and I am sure there are experienced investors and agents who know it well and can give me direction, which is what this group is about if I recall.

Canada is different than the US for mortgages (and within Canada there are difference among the provinces as well). 

Because that's what the best lenders will lend me on the acquisition and sometimes that's what I will get on the refinance step too...well, sometimes. 

Seems like it's probably a fairly saturated market with slim margins, but considering it's a hobby already, might as well combine them? 

@Robert Sorrels well, congrats on buying your first home.  

Assume the property is well located with average appreciation ...Selling some properties of mine and just curious what the average investor buyer is thinking ...Thanks guys 

But weekends I need to start doing that as well

Relationships can be important as well. 

I have a group of friends that they are looking to invest in Real Estate in some deals together, but we are not clear on how to make sure we structure the partnership correctly.I am  in real estate investing since 2018 where I invested in Single Family on my own and holding rentals as well, but I have never done a deal with partners.
