    Help re:termination clause

    Thx Thomas..........."So if the tenant agrees"....does this mean a new agreement to be resigned by all parties or just an addendum to add the clause? On another note is there a minimum covered by the tenants board for a tenant to notify a landlord?

    Help re:termination clause

    I just got a call from one of my tenants giving me the end of MAY as the last day for tenancy.

    Kingston Cap Rates/Market

    Fair enough. Let me see if I can rephrase. Assuming rents are going between $700 and $800 what do you expect to pay per door? for a multiplex 15- 20 units. Or do you have another measurement that can tell help me determining a price since cash flow really depends on interest rate, down payment...

    Canadian housing market headed for a crash!

    QUOTE (ThomasBeyer @ Nov 19 2009, 07:02 PM) yes .. many cash-flow .. and many do NOT incl. home owners who live there .. thus an increase for 4% to 5% in interest rate with a 25% higher payment/month makes an impact on affordability ! Fair enough. I guess I just confused on how this fit with...

It does not seem that this gets served to anyone and is strictly for record keeping. Does this have to be sent to anyone (third party?) to validate that you sent someone an N4...
