My business partner and I have been discussing this topic for quite some time. We currently live in Alberta, but are from Nova Scotia. We also recently graduated university so we aren't technically "cash rich" but we do have funds to invest into a property up to the low 300's.
The only question is, when taking into consideration properties just from a cash flow perspective we find it easier to find these properties in parts of Nova Scotia, places like Sydney. For example, we can find a triplex for 249K which cash-flows 300 dollars after taking into consideration the vacancy, property management, and repairs allowance.
It would extremely hard to find a similar property in Alberta, but obviously the macroeconomic factors are much greater here in terms of long term appreciation, but if its all about cash flow why aren't other investors considering the east coast?
