Finding Motivated Sellers in Canada

[Greg Downey]

Hey Guys! I've been bingeing the BP podcast and and dozens of real estate books over the past year or so, so I think I'm ready to jump.in with two feet. Only problem is, a lot of this stuff doesn't seem to work in Canada? Or am I wrong? Anyone want to walk through their first Canadian SFR or Multi-Family purchase? Specifically how they found it. The MLS is crazy expensive, and privacy laws seems to restrict most of the sources the they use to find motivated sellers. Thoughts on how to get started up here?

@Graeme Ford, in Ontario, you can go to any city hall (at least in the Greater Toronto Area this is true) and look for the Assessment Rolls sections. There, you can sit at a computer terminal for free, enter any municipal address, and you will be given the name of the owner and the address to which the municipal tax bills are sent = where you can contact the owners! :-)
