    A Honest Conversation About Building Financial Freedom the Right Way

    In this episode of Where Should I Invest, Sarah Larbi welcomes back Kasey Wong to discuss what it really takes to build long-term financial freedom through Canadian real estate. Kasey shares how being let go early in his career pushed him to pursue secure, income-producing real estate, starting with a Toronto triplex in 2003. Years later, real estate gave him the leverage to walk away from his final job on his own terms. Together, Sarah and Kasey unpack: Why “generational wealth” is really about passing down education and experience Why 5–10 years is a realistic timeline for financial freedom The dangers of coaches promising 1–2 year exits Why multifamily and student housing remain reliable long-term plays How to test rent demand using “ghost ads” The reality of 30–35% down payments for larger multifamily deals Cash-for-keys debate Tenant horror stories and the mental staying power required in this business Kasey Wong is a Canadian real estate investor specializing in multifamily and student housing properties. After starting with a Toronto triplex in 2003, he built long-term income-producing assets that eventually allowed him to leave traditional employment behind. Kasey focuses on practical, conservative investing strategies and has recently returned to coaching and sharing real estate analysis via social media. This is an honest conversation about building freedom the right way without hype.To learn more and access past episodes, visit: https://sarahlarbi.com/podcast-home Contact Kasey Wong here: Website: https://cacoeli.com/ YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@kasey_wong Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/kasey_wong_apartments/ This episode has been brought to you in part by: Ryan DeLaurentis, Flip Savvy – https://flipsavvy.ca/ Ryan Carson, Carson Law – https://www.carsonlaw.ca/ or email ryan@carsonlaw.ca Dalia Barsoum, Streetwise Mortgages https://streetwisemortgages.com/ Do you need help or ideas for your own real estate investing business?

    In this episode of Where Should I Invest, Sarah Larbi sits down with registered psychotherapist Samir Boulazreg to explore the mental and emotional side of entrepreneurship, investing, and high performance. They unpack how anxiety, depression, perfectionism, and burnout quietly impact ambitious professionals and why waiting for the “perfect time” often keeps people stuck. Samir shares practical frameworks around mindfulness, movement, nutrition, and therapy, and explains why mental health work isn't about “fixing yourself,” but about building awareness and resilience over time. This conversation is especially relevant for entrepreneurs, investors, and high achievers who are building toward financial freedom but struggling to stay present along the way. What You'll Learn: Why most people live in the past and how it fuels anxiety How depression creates a negative feedback loop (and how to interrupt it) Why starting imperfectly beats waiting for the perfect plan The real difference between psychotherapy and life coaching How mindfulness helps regulate high-achieving personalities Why men and first responders often avoid therapy and why that's changing How movement and routine support long-term mental resilience Samir Boulazreg is a registered psychotherapist who works with entrepreneurs, high performers, and first responders. His approach blends evidence-based therapy with practical strategies around mindset, behaviour, and well-being. Samir specializes in helping people manage stress, anxiety, depression, and burnout while building meaningful and sustainable lives.

    In this episode of Where Should I Invest, Sarah Larbi sits down with Natalie Cloutier, a real estate developer, author, and builder who has carved out a unique niche in the Canadian investing landscape: Build to Rent. Starting with $0 at just 19 years old, Natalie and her husband built their first home using an auto-construction loan and that single decision launched a long-term strategy now responsible for multiple duplexes, fourplexes, and sixplexes. Natalie breaks down the real numbers, the risks, the rewards, and the mindset behind creating cash-flowing rentals from the ground up. She also shares the truth about Bill 23, the municipal pushback that followed, and the often-overlooked challenges developers face behind the scenes.

What You'll Learn How Natalie's “Build to Rent” strategy works from land acquisition to refinance The financing structure needed to build rentals with minimal money left in the deal How Bill 23 created unexpected chaos for builders Why municipalities can make or break your development timeline The biggest mistakes investors make when expanding into construction How Natalie handles permitting, design, and working with new city staff Why choosing the right JV partner matters more than the deal How she used rebates, credit hacks, and marketplace finds to finish units affordably What inspired her new book The Build to Rent Strategy Why cash flow matters more than unit count When to step back from development (and why mental fatigue is real) How to start with nothing and still build long-term wealth Natalie Cloutier is a real estate investor and developer specializing in the Build-to-Rent model, constructing duplexes, fourplexes, and sixplexes across Ontario.
