Just because it`s "cheap" doesn`t mean you should buy it! This looks like a pretty nice place, at very first glance, but what is the tenant profile for the area....could have all those nice reno`s trashed before you know it IF you rent to the wrong folk - yes, could happen anywhere, but just something to consider. Don`t buy a property b/c it`s pretty OR b/c it`s cheaper than where you live, make sure the numbers work and make sure you talk to some investors and/or PM`s from the area so you know what you`re getting into.
Spoke with a member not too long ago with a triplex in Brantford which does really well, but he`s also pretty hands on with management.
