Canadian Real Estate Investing
Hello fellow Canadian REI'ers!! I'm a complete noob that is very excited to get my feet wet eventually once I have enough saved up for a down payment on my first house hack. The concern I bring to this post today is that people on BP talk about direct mail marketing nonstop and how powerful of an acquisition strategy it is. There's absolutely no deals in my local market on the MLS as I'm sure is the case for many many markets in this current climate, so I'm left with having to obviously search for off market deals. In Canada, what is the best strategy for doing this? I was told by a local investor colleague of mine that we aren't legally able to get lists like our American neighbours are, in this case how do we pursue direct mail? I know I could obviously door knock but any other strategies? Any tips on this or anything involved with finding your first deal that's not $300K CAD would be very very much appreciated!
