still have some friends in Montreal, most of whom are involved in IT or Web design.  

@Terry Koepp You'll want to look into and understand UBIT (unrealted Business Income Tax) and how it will effect your investment.  

Keep in mind some things won't show themselves for awhile, a house usually gives up most of it's ghosts in a 1 year cycle, this allows it to go through the seasonal changes of moisture, expansion and contraction and tear itself apart where it needs to, tile floors will show cracked grout within a year, letting you know they weren't installed with proper underlayments, drywall will crack at doors and windows showing the house movement do to soil getting wet and drying out where it shouldn't, the basement will get wet showing you where the freeze thaw is effecting it, paint in bathrooms will show mold in a year showing you that the flipper didn't vent exhaust fans properly and the list will go on and on... 

But I would assume that those forms might not be as thorough as the forms Brandon put in his book because he has made them after experiencing a lot BS as a landlord and designed them to make sure those new found issues raised by tenants are covered in the lease or Rules and Regs forms...

I didn't enjoy competing with her.After 10 months, I decided to go solo and work under the license of a coach I had retained.Several months later, my internal entrepreneur got the better of me and I opened my own brokerage - Clear Sailing Realty, LLC (Where our tag line says it all: It's Clear Sailing.....all the way Home)We're designed to be a low cost, low friction brokerage both for clients and agents. 

If I split the water line how would it effect if work needed to done on the water line connecting to the back house?

right now I drive an old car. 1999, It was my first beater .Right now I'm saving to get enough money to put into my business / save enough to get a hard money lender and do a deal....Even though people say they don't judge , I'm curious how much of an effect a car has on a listing appointment . 

Here in Canada, the process is well defined and requests can be made though any police force (national - RCMP, Provincial - QPP, OPP, NF Constabulary, or local) or, in certain situations, though specificly designated agencies (those who perform digital fingerprint services, or those who can perform name-based checks)

Keep up the work, stay persistent, and try different methods to find the most effective.

If this is just a small, passive income stream, I don't see why it would effect you receiving benefits.
