Hi there, What is the proper way for me to assign a purchase contract to my investor (JV Partner). In the past, I just stipulated the "contract was assignable" and we did an amendment to the contract showing my investors name (since I`m not going to be on title). I guess there is some new...

QUOTE (housingrental @ Feb 25 2010, 07:34 PM) Approximately how many hours did it take you total? Do I understand correctly you`ll get 50% of the profit what she`s agreed to as the present day value in 5 years , etc. correct? And you have to put up cash for repairs and carrying but get that...

QUOTE (EdRenkema @ Feb 24 2010, 10:54 AM) Nice job and congratulations! Thanks for sharing. Can you explain some of your marketing techniques as in what, how much, and approximate cost? Thanks. Thanks. Basically I created an ad and posted it on Kijiji for a couple of weeks (We Buy Houses...

Good morning, I thought I`d share some results with a recent success I had with one of Tony`s methods of buying property with no money down. Senario: I did a little advertising with the whole "We Buy Houses" marketing campaign and had a lady call me from Costa Rica (lives there for the...

Good morning, I was wondering if anybody had an experience posting "Bandit Signs" in the Red Deer area. I downloaded their sign bylaw, but it`s super long and a little convoluted regarding actual "Bandit Signs". I can email it to somebody if they`re interested in looking through it. I`m...
