Barry McGuire while at law school, had his first opportunity to
invest in real estate. He had a friend who seemed to be buying every
house near the University of Alberta, renting it out and building a
real estate empire. McGuire was a student and needed a place to stay
while going to law school, so he used his student loan for the down
payment and quickly found five other students who also needed a place
to stay. The positive cash flow was tremendous and replaced the
missing student loan. Better yet, three years later, the property had
tripled in value!
This early lesson was not forgotten, and Barry
continues to enjoy a diversified real estate investment portfolio.
Thirty years later, Barry's legal practice3 is focused exclusively on
real estate.
Over the years, Barry has had extensive involvement
with he Alberta Real Estate Association in preparing and teaching
credit courses for real estate agents. He has also taught these
courses for the real Estate Training Institute, an independent trainer
of real estate professionals.
In his daily legal practice at
Ritchie ill Law Office in Edmonton, Alberta, Barry loves to assist
clients with the planning and consulting issues that help ensure
successful real estate purchases. He believes that a sound education
in real estate fundamentals is one of the best tools in any real
estate investor's toolbox.
