We have had good luck with GoDaddy. Full hosting, domains, email and website builder capabilities. I find them very simple, affordable and good customer service.

In tight times, many homeowners want — or need — an extra source of income. An idea that often gets floated is building and renting out an apartment in the house to help pay the mortgage or make ends meet. The first problem with this plan is that these apartments are usually illegal, and that’s...

I agree with Jim. Citi needs to realize that it is in their best interest to let you make the payments going forward. Since when does a bank refuse a paying customer, especially in the face of a foreclosure. They are in the business of making money, not owning real estate!

QUOTE (LillianHo @ Mar 11 2010, 03:38 PM) Monte, thank you for your feedback. I understand your concern. But I want to know that the problem was more like when you setting up the account or after that? When do you need their service the most? Thanks, Lillian No setting up the account and...

QUOTE (VicChung @ Mar 10 2010, 02:38 PM) Thanks everyone. Monte, I have a bank account with TD and thought it would be easier to use them as well. Do you have a TD waterhouse contact? What are the steps you took in minimizing the impact of bad customer service?Remember, TD Bank and TD...

QUOTE (VicChung @ Mar 10 2010, 09:02 AM) Thanks everyone. The general comment is that it is easy to put money in. How about taking money out? That depends on the liquidity of the investment you choose, but is as easy as moving money from one bank account to another. Note: there are fees...

QUOTE (Dnaiture @ Mar 9 2010, 11:21 AM) I was hoping you guys might be able to help me in terms of what sort of returns would a JV partner(s) be looking for to interest them in a potential deal. I had recently put together a proposal with a conservatively estimated ROI of 9%/yr with a...

Nice work Mark!To me this type of deal is ideal. You`ve made an instant cash "in your jeans" return of nearly 30% (on the option deposit) from your tenant buyer, with great cashflow and a locked in value after 2 years. I like it! PS. How did you find your potential tenant buyers?? QUOTE...

One red flag that comes to mind is the homeowners ability to pay?? If he got into the financial situation he is in today, what makes you think he can continue to afford the payments going forward?? That being said, here is an article from the US...

QUOTE (Rickson9 @ Mar 1 2010, 04:54 PM) Assuming an investment can throw off $1,200 per month per door or $14,400 per year per door in gross rent I would be willing to pay $72,000 per unit. Of course, I can only speak for myself so please keep that in mind. Where do you find such a property?

Hi Drew, Have you initiated a new report on the Grande Prairie market? I`d be interested to hear your thoughts. Regards,

Hi Paul, Yes I believe this program works for LIRA`s as well. I don`t know about the loan portion on your TDS...I would assume that it does not show up on your credit bureau and therfore would not count towards your TDS, but that is a great question for the folks at I-finance. I would just call...

Hi Paul, We have used this program a couple of times with good success. Sean is right, you are bascially loaning yourself your own RRSP money, at a set interest rate etc, in return for the cash value of your RRSP. Very good program in my opinion for extracting RRSP capital tax free for buying...
