So I guess all I’m asking for is any advice or tips to get started.

Utilities usually always left out and are big surprise by new investors: Pest control, Garbage, accounting and legal and sewer. 

Hi BP gang, I am a new real estate investor looking for some tips in the rental market in and around Grande Prairie, Alberta. 

Hope you'll find time to browse each page/forum and the following tips are my recommendations:         1.

@Lynnette E.Cool, thanks for the tip!

Many more tips but don't want to overwhelm with too many ideas at once.  

I am in the middle of reading the ultimate beginners guide and I am actually going to look at the two properties tonight.Any pointers, tips, etc. would be fantastic.Thanks!

@Stan McCune that is an awesome and well thought out response.That's why there are choices and options, "Different strokes for different folks"...without totally de-railing the thread I think its worth noting there is a line you are tip toeing there.

WELCOME any advice, tips, and stories!

Also if anyone wants to share any hot markets or any tips for a newbie it will be greatly appreciated!
