Hey Devyn, let's connect. 

Reading this does not make me want to share my contacts with you especially how you haven't provided any value to anyone.
Try reaching out to some bigger pockets members via messages and try to connect on a more sincere level. And honestly, you don't need to line up all your contacts before you get into a deal, it is wise but not necessary. Network and they will naturally come your way. My 2 cents.

I know them personally. They definitely have deals in their pipeline each month. I've actually gone through the process of buying one of their deals with partners. They have good deals and the guy working for them in Quebec is rock solid. 

Hey @Alberto Foglietta,

Pretty sure that you have to have it under your name in order to get a first time home buyer loan and a lower DDP. (not certain)

Also, LLC is US specific. If I remember correctly you're investing from Montreal.

From what I heard, I'm no expert. Flips aren't something you should be getting into right now.

Hey @Razvan Gazi, nice connecting with you. Also a new investor in the Montreal region. Currently bird-dogging 5 units + rental units to my big network of investors. 
I am also interested in the recommendations you will get through the post.
What area are you looking to invest in particular?

I'll start: 
I'm a student that is very passionate about real estate investing. My goal is to acquire my first property by the end of the year. Rental units 6+ is what interests me the most. I have a lot of knowledge in Facebook advertisement as I have run a lot of marketing for Realtors. (And yes, I know how to generate motivated sellers).
Very active in the English CIIQ (Club d'investisseurs immobilier Quebec).

Now it's your turn: Who are you? What do you specialize in?

In the Uk, a popular trend called rent 2 rent peaked my interest. Rent 2 rent is basically getting permission from the landlord to let you sublease the property, typically you rent every room to a different tenant in so-called HMO's, house of multiple occupancies. 

I was wondering if you could do that in Canada, Montreal. 

You rent an apartment from the landlord, with PERMISSION and rent each room individually.

Why would the landlord do this?

1. You get a monthly guaranteed rent. 

2. All the damages would be paid.

Is this allowed?
