    First time renting basement

    I always do a social media search in addition to my usual due diligence too. You often find some things on there they might not want you to know. -Phil Wong Obsidian Real Estate Solutions www.obsidianres.com

    Opinion Needed for a Potential RTO Tenant in Alberta

    Yes, I have informed my Realtor who has some experience doing RTOs himself, to steer tenants towards properties that will cashflow on their own if all else fails. That's another thing I will be talking to my investor about. Thanks Sherilynn

    Opinion Needed for a Potential RTO Tenant in Alberta

    Well, I've been exchanging a few more email with the client and there must have been some miscommunication earlier but I was wrong about the 20% down. He's confident he can get 10% but 20 is a bit of a stretch. I'm trying to negotiate with him to either increase his initial option payment or...

I was thinking of charging the buyer 3.5% interest on $300,000 paid monthly on over 3 years which would net me about $31,500 in interest payments on top...

    Creative Ideas needed for an RTO Deal

    A concern that I have however, is what my course of action would be if my buyer, who is now living in the home, can no longer afford the monthly payments? Phil

    Creative Ideas needed for an RTO Deal

    Hello Thomas, Thank you for the reply. That's actually a very good idea. Based on what you've told me, this is my plan so please let me know what you think. 1) Say we enter into an agreement where I would buy the $300,000 property for 20% down so I put down $60,000. My client then does an...

    Hello All, I recently had a client contact me to help him purchase a property. He is a self-employed carpenter and cannot be approved for a mortgage currently as his books have show that he makes less than he actually makes so it will take him a couple years to improve his verifiable income...

    Darn. Well, I'll see what I can do. It's not the tuition or the flight but rather the difficulty getting time off of work. I'll see what I can do. Hopefully I will be able to see you there! Thanks, Phil
