Hi Victoria REIN members, Do any of you know a good realtor in Victoria that deals with small multi`s? Thanks gk

Hi, I think it depends a lot on where it is. Cottage country has not being doing well the last few years and is still depressed. This property could be very hard to unload. Also unless you can get more income from it in a lease option you would be barely breaking even not taking into...

I love this site. I was just contemplating my experience with PatLive and thought I`d check here to see if anyone had any comments. Right at the top of the posts was this thread. Serendipity. Here are my comments. I tend to agree with many of the points David made. While you can make the case...

I know this topic has come up before but after searching for some time I can`t find any posts on it. When I try to update my personal photo, I keep getting a message that says I need to conatact a board administrator. Not sure how to do that and would like some help with this. I`ve just...

Hi Barry, Sounds like people got some really good info from your workshop. Too bad I`m in BC There is one thing I`m still a bit confused about. If I were doing a straight cash buy for a discounted house I remember Ron saying don`t try to do a "tabletop" closing. So if you meet with the vendor...

Just weighing in here on the response to yellow letters. My first two batches I sent out with my full name and return address to the town I live in. I have also had people look me up in the phone book even though I`m using Patlive and call my home to express displeasure. Not a lot of fun. It...

Hi, Interesting thread. I`m also interested in a webinar on the basics of this topic. Someone is developing a site for me right now however the more I get into it the more I fear I`m guilty of the Fire. Aim Ready method. Thanks gk QUOTE (neill @ Nov 22 2009, 12:32 PM) Consider the thread...

I don`t know Kevin - sure seems like he gives new meaning to the term "suspect". I have also run into a few sellers who owe more than the value of the house. My understanding is that unless there is a second that can be seriously discounted, walk away. gk QUOTE (Avoidconfusion @ Nov 16 2009...

This may be old hat to some of you who have spent a fair amount of time on the internet but I thought I`d pass on my research. I`ve spent a fair amount of time looking for greater vancouver realtors who work with investors and or deal with foreclosures etc. Initially I got excited when I came...

That`s great Tony and I`m sure more people will come forward when you have specifics. I just got another e-mail from someone expressing interest. And I read your latest post about potential landmines. I couldn`t agree more. Let`s get as much seasoned advice and guidance as possible. Cheers...

That`s great news Tony. I`ll bet once you actually make a plan more people will come out of the woodwork. cheers gk QUOTE (tonypeters @ Nov 9 2009, 09:41 AM) Gail, I would like to thank you for your vote of support! Based on the positive response to your post, it looks like I will...

Thanks to everyone who`s responded so far. I will be contacting Tony to find out how many people we need to get him out here. I suspect it`s a few more than we`ve got so far but I`m optomistic that more will come forward. cheers gk

Who else would be interested in seeing Tony Peters come to Vancouver to do a workshop given his understanding of Ron`s methods as they relate to te Canadian market? Can I see a show of hands? Thanks gk

QUOTE (tonypeters @ Nov 5 2009, 05:20 PM) Hi Tony,I`ve been really enjoying following the different threads you`ve contributed to as someone who has walked the walk.I very much agree with you that USians and Canadians have different cultures and ways of doing things and we need to adapt. If I...

Hi everyone, I`ve just spent a ton of time searching the REIN site for BC realtors who are REIN savy. A while ago Miguel posed this same question and only Mitch from NE BC responded. Here are a couple of other ideas. Brent Roberts has presented at REIN before as an investor friendly agent. Not...

QUOTE (BarryMcGuire @ Nov 4 2009, 05:40 PM) Hi Gail, An ownership interest `in trust` always means that the title holder, in this case the Credit Union, holds a portion of the title for someone else. Titles always have two sides to the ownership, the legal interest and the beneficial interest...

If a third "owner of a property is shown as a credit union in trust what does this mean exactly? Can anyone explain this for me? Thanks Gail

I had really wanted to go to the western conference but it conflicted with some preplanned family time in Ontario ( I live in BC ). I was surprised and delighted to receive a package of information and discs the other day on the conference. I didn`t expect it and it was like getting a gift in...

I`ll jump in and say I agree with Thomas re: Nanaimo. I have owned a duplex there for several years so have kept my eye on it from Vancouver. It is more affordable than Victoria, close to Vancouver and services the central island and northwards. It`s not just about forestry any more. gk
