QUOTE (gwasser @ Oct 17 2009, 05:23 PM) ROI means return on investments. What did you invest? Your down payment plus any future renovation costs (not maintenance). What did/do you get in return? 1: positive cashflow (accumulated during years of ownership) 2: Upon sale of your unit or when...

I am wondering if anyone has a fairly simple calculation of ROI in Real Estate Investing. I tried to look it up on google and just got confused. I thought ROI was just your monthly rent you collect / your total cash investment. I know that this is something I will need to understand for REI...

Ok well is anyone interested in going for coffee and talking about real estate investing ideas. Weekends are best

Hello Everyone I would like to start a group meeting in Saskatoon to talk about Real Estate Investing and also possibly other investing ideas. Anyone interested please post on here or email me at [email protected] I am gone usually 5 or 6 days and usually dont have access to the internet while...

I am just researching REI and have not yet got any properties but I have lived in Saskatoon for over 12 years and in the last 2 years or so we have had quite an increase in population. Also our rental vacancy rate is around 0 % and people are having a hard time finding places to rent. That...

Hi Ben Thank you for the valuable information. I don`t mean to sound rushed or anything but I would like to get started into REI sooner rather than later because if we keep waiting then we will always find excuses not to do it instead of asking how we can do it. I have just finished listening...

Hi Thomas Thank you very much for your reply. I do realize that REI is not a get rich quick scheme although some like to advertise it that way. My wife and I said we want a house of our own first and then we will get into investing. I am finding it difficult to decide on how to start and...

Hi Gregg Thank you for your response. That helps alot. One thing I have been looking at is purchasing the ACRE home study course and spending at least 6 months learning the system inside and out. I have read Don`s book Canadian Real Estate Investing and found it quite informative.

Hi Kevin Thank you very much for your reply. That helps alot. One thing I am also wondering about is if anyone has taken out a PLC for training purposes before they got started in the groundwork (looking for quality properties with positive cash flow, etc). I have been researching REIN for...

Hello Everyone I have been looking at REI for a while but have never had the capital to get started. My wife and I have just bought our first home which I look at as a start into the world of REI. We would like to get a couple investment properties but at this time have no money of our own...

Hello I am very impressed by the benefits of joining REIN but I am from Saskatchewan and am wondering if all the documents can be used across Canada. I know that my wife and I were talking to a lawyer from AB on a different thing altogether and he said he could not help us because the laws...
