Good morning everyone. My name is Adam and I am on the outskirts of Toronto, Ontario, Canada. Attended the University of Notre Dame and graduated in Architecture. Been involved in real estate development for thirty years, dabbling in land subdivision, construction management and my true love, converting historic properties into new uses, mostly loft style residential condos or rentals. I joke around telling people that I can draw a straight line and count to ten and not get confused (about buildings for sale!). My first attempt in the US market took me to the Finger Lakes Region to a four storey downtown vacant property. Let me tell you about the frustrations about a foreigner (although I don't look like one, LOL) seeking conventional financing on an undervalued, promising opportunity. Perhaps this will be our forum to share ideas, concepts, and opportunities freely. I attended a recent seminar on investing in the US and it was worthwhile expereince. So I extend an invitation to dialogue about new individual properties or multi family projects, to make new friends, and to share our joint vision that a dream house or project is out there with our names on it and that those new opportunities may create bigger pockets for each of us.
