Hello all REIN forum users,
I am looking to buy my first property by the end of May this year. Like most of this forum users, I have read Real Estate Investing in Canada and find the book very helpful for first time RE investors. I am starting to build my team now, where I beleive the mentor has very important place.
Now a little bit abot myself. I and my wife immigrated to Canada from Europe 10 years ago. We are both professionals - my wife is pharmacist and I am an engineer (graduated in Canada). We have two children and live in Mississauga, ON. We are pretty disciplined when it comes to saving and accumulate our savings in pretyy good pace. I plan to buy our first investment property with 20% down - all personal funds, I will use money from HELOC if I need any additional funds - closing costs for example. I am thinking of investing in one of the following areas - Hamilton, the tech triangle or Milton. As helpful the book is, it can not answer all the questions while preparing to buy your first property - such as questions related to building the team, due diligence, etc. That is why, I will really appresiate if an experienced RE investor agrees to be my mentor.
In addition, I would like to form a small group (3 people) of first tme or junior RE investors that are willing to meet, let say once a month, and exchanges experience + help each other in the process of building RE portfolio. i am looking for people living in GTA, Hamilton and adjacent areas. Please let me know if anyone is interested.
Thanks
