Book description
A lot of information has been published for those who wish to buy a
condo as a principal residence, but not for investors who want to expand
into the condominium market. Investing in condominiums is not about
being caught up in the mass hysteria of lining up to buy a
pre-construction unit in a "hot neighbourhood" and hopefully
flipping it at a profit when it's built. On the contrary, investing in
condos can be a very good way to generate solid returns when done
according to the proven strategies outlined in the book.
Investing in Condominiums will show readers the ins and outs of
profitable condo investing by sticking to investing fundamentals,
carrying out proper due diligence, and having an exit plan.
Pre-construction condominiums, especially in Toronto and Vancouver are
sought-after by both Canadian and international investors. The stable
economy, low-interest rate environment, and appreciating values are a
recipe for investor success. Investing in Condominiums gives
Canadian investors the nuts and bolts of undertaking such an
investment based on real-life examples and expert knowledge. By
reading this book, the investor can proceed with full confidence
knowing that they are asking the right questions, doing the math, and
assembling the right team of experts that will help them realize their
investment goals.
