Hi Devin, I'm over in Stittsville. I've been growing my portfolio over the last year in preparation for pulling pin at twenty of service.
The Ottawa OREIO meetings are good value and membership is cheap.
There are a lot of meetUps in the city as well.
If you have any questions please feel free to send me a message.
Hi @Mathieu Laquerre, I've seen you at a few OREIO meetings and we share a few mutual friends. I didn't know you were focused down south, is there a place I could learn more about your business & opportunities?
Thank in advanced,

Hello Daphnee,
I'm just wondering how you made out with the Gatineau side of things as a resident of Ontario. Specifically how the purchase process was, are there any extra tax implications, and if you are using a property management company that you are pleased with?
Thanks in advanced,
Paul

@Chris Habets Thanks so much for the quick reply, I was at OREIO when you spoke about your NS deal, glad to hear that you're closing in on the finish line.
Cheers,

@Chris Habets, I'm currently in the same situation as yourself two years ago. Have you had any luck and found a road map that works, I feel like I'm researching in circles. My Situation: Wanting to buy Multifamily properties, commercial or residential loan type, with Friends and Family investment. I would have some capital in the investment, and would do all the leg work in getting it off the ground for my share of the deal.
Thank in advanced,
Paul

I had good luck with commercial lending at Desjardins Casse Special. The lady I dealt with is based in Cornwall but she does ottawa and eastward, very knowledgeable. Deals with large multifamily portfolios and told me I would be able to do portfolio loans as I grew. She may be worth a shot, not sure if I can say her name, but direct message me if its something that interests you.
I would try Chris's recommendation if youre looking for someone a bit more local.

@Birtha Wall did you ever pursue moving the house? I'd love to hear how it went.
