I was talking with a client of mine recently who is looking to invest some of her equity into the US Real Estate market.
This begs two questions:
1) Why would a Canadian invest in American Real Estate?
2) How can a Canadian start investing in American Real Estate?
Lets look at the first question:
The glaring answer is […]

This year I’ve been dealing with an increasing number of clients from British Columbia. They love the west coast weather and lifestyle, but don’t like the prices of local investment real estate. In contrast to the $120,000 condominiums and $250,000 new single detached family homes available in Kitchener Waterloo, Ontario, prices in Vancouver […]

About a month ago I met a new client of mine, a very smart young guy. He bought his first real estate property 3 years ago for about $175K, put some ’sweat equity’ into it, and it’s worth about $250,000 today. My mortgage broker Jeff Reitzel had an approval in hand to refinance […]

A lot of people come to me talking about the ‘gross rental multiplier’ on a single family home, or about how important it is to get maximum cash flow, or how they won’t look at properties under a certain capitalization rate.
Poor planning is the downfall of many would be investors. Maybe they don’t know […]

It used to be that you could work for a company for 45 years, and retire with a pension to meet your needs, and a gold watch to match.

Last week at Toastmasters, our club president gave a speech about Registered Education Savings Plans (RESP).
He determined that the cost of a 4 year post secondary degree, away from home, will be well over $100,000 in 15 years (he estimated as high as $180,000, but that may have been a US statistic). The RESP […]

An interesting situation came up recently while I was pursuing an investment property for a client in Kitchener Waterloo, Ontario.
Sally is from out of town, but she has recently started to move her equity into the Kitchener Waterloo area in the form of real estate investment property.
She had a mortgage broker she used when she […]

Back when I was working in a large financial management brokerage (which means I was working with a team of stock brokers), I remembered being shocked at how small people’s portfolios were when they approached retirement.
A very common situation was:
Married couple, sixty years old
Making $100,000+ year combined
$500,000 in RRSP and other stocks, bonds and mutual […]
