    Positive Cash Flow

    QUOTE (RedlineBrett @ Dec 13 2007, 08:47 AM) I have seen these adds too. I`m sure what they mean to say is "It`s cashflowing for me!" I think that you are exactly right Brett. These landlords are reffering to the fact that they bought the property 10 years ago for $60,000 and have a very small...

    just starting out -where do i get good rental contracts etc?

    I have just recently taken a home equity line of credit (HELOC) on my residence. The back will generally finance up to 80%. The great things about a HELOC, like any line of credit is that it allows you to pay interest on what you are using rather than the total amount that you are approved for...

    Collecting Rent on Time

    These are definetly valid points. One could arrange it so that the rent doesnt increase forever based on the fact that they failed to pay you one time. It could be arranged in such away that they are penalized or rewarded (depending on your perspective) every month, reducing the fear of higher...

    Collecting Rent on Time

    Hi Greg, I think that you may be looking at this the wrong way. If the market can handle $1200.00 in rent, the contract would be written so the the tenant pays $1300.00 with a $100.00 discount if the rent is paid on time. Or, rent is set at $1200.00 with a penalty of an aditional $100.00...

    Collecting Rent on Time

    From what I understand, you are saying that discounting is not a good idea but penalizing is. I also agree. Is it legal to penalize for late payment (assuming it is written in the contract) on a scale approach as has been suggested and has anyone used the approach? Thank you for your...

    Collecting Rent on Time

    I am wondering if any one has had success with discounting rent if it is paid on time? For example, rent is advertised at $1000.00 if paid on time and $1200.00 if paid late. Has this been successful and how much of a discount do some of you offer? Also, has this left a negative impact on the...

    JV- Should my name be on the Mortgage?

    Thanks, that is great advice Rebecca. My long term plan is to purchase as many properties as i can use the maximum amount or OPM. This being the case, I understand that I should not be on the mortgage as that will affect my future ratios and credit. Is it possible to be on the house title but...

    I am about to embark on my first investment property which will be a JV. My partner is able to use all of his credit to get the mortgage and we are spliting the down payment and expenses 50-50. Since he does not need my credit to get the mortgage, is there any benefit for me to be on the...

    Fight Aids, Save Taxes

    QUOTE (bluerockgroup @ Oct 31 2007, 04:03 PM) I`ve been to one of these presentations by C.O.I.P. and F.A.S.T. They have some rather convincing literature and I was tempted to give it a shot. Thankfully, just a few days later that Don presented the article above in a REIN meeting and I was...

    I am starting to think I should sell - My TV!

    QUOTE (timk519 @ Oct 28 2007, 01:35 PM) Do you think it`ll take 2 years for the subprime meltdown, a US recession, and higher CDN $ to affect the CDN RE market? We`re seeing manufacturing hurting right now, and with it loss of jobs. Warren Buffet`s been quoted that it`ll take about 2 years for...
