Hello everyone,
My name is Tom. I have read through "Real Estate Investing in Canada" once, and now I'm re reading it a second time and going through the steps as they are laid out in the book.
I'm new to real estate investing (though I have previous experience in stock trading). I'm 25 and don't own any property yet. I'm trying to educate myself as much as possible and learn everything I can. Real estate investing and flipping houses always made a lot of sense to me, but until now I've never been in a position to dedicate enough time and resources to learning.
Now that I have the time, I'm eager to learn, although I've hit a few road blocks. I have searched online as best as I can to find resources of information and stats about Quebec and cities/towns within Quebec (I live in Montreal, more specifically, Beaconsfield). I've been trying to find information on average incomes/immigration/basically everything that is talked about throughout the book in order to find the best cities and towns to spend my time looking at, and I'm having a hard time finding any good sources of information. I've tried looking through these forums, but it seems I keep coming up short when it comes to Quebec.
My question is: Does anyone know of any good places for me to check for this kind of information (market research, stats, etc...)? Are there any of you who reside in Quebec, or invest in Quebec who I would be able to speak with? Any and all information/suggestions/help is very much appreciated.
Thank you!
-Tom
