I never bought real estate in the US but I worked there a number of years as a Canadian citizen. I found the partners George Dube CA / Peter Cuttini CA,CPA very helpful for cross-border tax issues.

What surprises me is I never see anything about REIN on the show Income Property. I know a tad about REIN and the process of income property and investment and this guy on Income Property really needs to be a investor and not a speculator.

I like using the Rental Market Reports published twice a year by CMHC because they drill right down to zones within major cities and they also isolate suite types (1br, 2br etc.) and show average rent within that so you can roughly compare to your properties...

Ok, so we got the Bank's Lawyer to tell us who the contact at the bank is. And then we phoned the contact and explained the situation. The contact said that we could stay until the end of October as long as we issued a bank draft for the rent. Now the really clincher will be to see if Shane...

I phoned the Alberta Tenancy branch and they told me that because of the nature of the situation, that being a bankruptcy of the landlord and that the bank would be taking the property back. The agreements with the tenant and the landlord are considered null and void. The bank is within their...

We were notifed by the lawyer of the bank that holds the mortgage on the house. And technically if the property was sold to another landlord we would get 3 months but the bank's agreement supersedes that of ours with the landlord. Thought maybe legally we could appeal to the bank to pay them...

For the last two years we have been renting a house in Okotoks and saving for a house to be built. We finally put a down payment on a house to be built and it will be complete the first week of November. However, now we have been notified that our landlord has lost the house we have been staying...

Thanks Thomas. I appreciate your quick response. Chris, I fully agree.

Regarding a joint venture, can both partners be on title if only one is on the mortgage? I am the non-mortgage partner and am looking for the least expensive way to protect my interest in the property (condo). We will have a joint venture agreement in place. I recall Thomas Beyer advising...

Hello fellow investors and landlords. I've just started up a new site for BC Landlords and Tenants. Would love some feedback if you have time - www.TenantsBC.ca Many thanks!

I am doing my first non-family JV with an Investor. He will be the only one on title; however I am the one putting in the offer and doing the negotiating. On the Offer to Purchase, I believe I have to allow for an assignment of sale. My Realtor gave me the wording - "The buyer reserves the...

I would recommend it as well. I carry insurance on all my condos (as riders off my homeowner policy). It doesn't cost that much and gives me peace of mind. I use Canadian Northern Shield because they allow up to 8 rentals on one homeowner policy. Here's some things you should consider...

Sadly, I think people forget the follies of past Political parties. Or they are swayed by the current leader saying he is a different person and that could never happen now. However, if you do your Due Diligence and research the roots of these parties and the foundational thinking you would draw...

Just another thought. Perhaps I tell my investor that instead of giving him all the cash flow, we do a 60/40 split on the profit from sale? And I still keep the 10% management fee. I think I like this idea better.

Thanks Thomas. These are all things I need to figure out. I suppose a reserve of a certain $$ amount would be wise to cover shortfalls, but that doesn't really sweeten the deal for the investor. So what I'm seeing is this - it simply looks like a better deal to him, although he'll probably...

I have a potential investor who is interested in doing a joint venture with me on a cash flowing condo. All the JVs I have done have been completely 50/50 partnerships with both parties on title and mortgage. The investor in this deal will be putting in all the cash, and I will manage the...

Anyone have a list of placed to find rent to own companies in the Okotoks area? We are sitting on pins and needles with our current rented house seeing as the land lord looks to have walked away from the mortgage. Do not know the time frame yet, but want to prepare.

I use to be a REIN member and was wondering how things are? Did Rema ever get ported over to a OSX platform? How about integration with Iphones? BB? Android? Push server?

Thank you for the advice everyone! My apologies about the location. I am looking for a lawyer in the GTA.
