Pros and Cons of being a Canadian Investor in the US Market Glen Sutherland is a real estate investor from Wellesley, ON (outside of Waterloo) where he lives with his wife and two terrific children. He started his investing journey by purchasing 'buy and hold' rental real estate locally. After a lot of research, he learned of more favourable laws, lower property taxes, and lower cost of entry south of the border. These factors make for greater ease of wealth creation. These days, Glen is investing in the US by buying, renovating, refinancing to grow his rental real estate portfolio. He also hosts the Podcast and YouTube channel entitled, "A Canadian Investing in the US", where he provides information and advice to investors interested in investing in both Canada and the US. He enjoys the privilege of sharing his knowledge with others.

How to polish a diamond in the rough. James started with his first rental property in Feb 2020, at the start of COVID. He was raised to fear debt, save money, go to school, work hard to graduate university, and get a good job - he is now in huge amounts of debt, spends all of his money immediately, and while he graduated university and got a great job, he left it shortly after. James now runs his own businesses and owns several multifamily buildings in Southwestern Ontario. His primary investing strategies are BRRRRs, Airbnb, and has done a few flips. His niche is buying properties with difficult problems to solve, with each property getting nicknames. The Machete House and the Crack Shack Hotel are the most popular amongst his followers.

Is paying $0 income tax really a possibility? In 2004, Jean-Pierre Laporte set out to create a better solution for investors that wanted improved asset protection while minimizing taxes. With an impressive academic background at the University of Toronto, Osgoode Hall Law School and the Institut d'Etudes Politiques de Paris, he is often called upon as an expert witness before the House of Commons Standing Committee on Finance, and he has written several seminal articles on pension reform, including an expansion of the Canada Pension Plan. Jean-Pierre, founded INTEGRIS drawing on over a decade of experience as a pension lawyer for several prestigious Toronto firms, including Bennett Jones LLP, Fasken Martineau LLP, Osler and Hoskin & Harcourt LLP. He has dedicated his career to improving pension legislation. Frustrated that the significant benefits of pensions were not readily available to those outside of large companies, Jean-Pierre created the Personal Pension Plan ™ to level the playing field and open up a new world of financial options and increased retirement savings for incorporated professionals. INTEGRIS Pension Management Corporation Offers incorporated business professionals (and C-Suite Executives) the most tax-effective way of saving for the future. INTEGRIS acts as a fiduciary between government and regulated companies in Canada to provide its clients with a high-calibre Personal Pension Plan (PPP®). While INTEGRIS does not invest assets, it designs and implements pension strategies tailored to the individual's needs and maintains the plan's compliant status over a lifetime. The PPP® is the most effective tax-savings solution permitted by Canadian tax legislation and generates the highest levels of wealth in Canada for its clients eclipsing all other savings vehicles such as TFSAs, RESPs, RRSP, and IPPs.

Paradise does come at a cost, but they really enjoy living where they do. Thomas loves real estate and over the years has transitioned it from a hobby into a full-time labour of love. It all started after reading Cashflow Quadrants by Robert Kiyosaki and joining a network of real estate investors that he realized the true benefits and possibilities that real estate could offer. In 2011, he was able to take a HELOC (home equity line of credit) off his principal residency and purchase a small duplex in an A-class rental area. It was from that point that he started creating his own portfolio of cash-flowing assets. Today, he is laser-focused on purchasing Class B & C cash-flowing properties and partnering with other investors who like the idea of real estate investing but don't have the time or experience to do so. He currently owns a combination of single-family homes, duplex, triplex and larger mix-used multi-family buildings. Thomas loves working with people and as a professional real estate agent helps as many people and families as he can make informed decisions when it comes to their homes. He understands that buying or selling a home is more than just a transaction: it's a life-changing experience. That's why Thomas and his team are dedicated to providing exceptional, personalized service for all of their clients. Thomas takes great pride in the relationships that he builds and works relentlessly on his client's behalf to help them achieve all their real estate goals. Fun facts about Thomas: He loves coffee…especially cappuccinos, He plays soccer, He loves eating spinach and rappini (Google it!), he teaches Sunday school, his favourite number is 7, he loves the beach (I would too if I live in Orange County, CA!), and he was born in Canada.

After graduating from the University of Toronto in 2012, Georges picked up a full time office job with a tech company. He quickly realized how miserable he was. After a really LONG period of reflection, he realized he'd be much happier in real estate. He thought to himself, "what can I do every day for the next 10 years and wake up feeling happy?". The answer was clear. He got his realtor's license knowing that one day he would become a real estate investor. After completing the "BRRR" strategy for the first time in 2017, he was hooked. Since then, He's been obsessed with the idea of building wealth and helping others do the same.

Where does the market go from here? Kevin Crigger joins us from TRREB to discuss the current state of the housing market in Toronto. He is the current President of Canada's largest real estate board and award-winning Realtor and multiple recipient of Johnston & Daniel's most prestigious awards for sales achievement.
