Investing In The US As A Canadian… And How To Do It RIGHT!! (feat. Erwin Szet...Volition Properties
=== Investing In The US As A Canadian… And How To Do It RIGHT!! (feat. Erwin Szeto) ===
Ever been curious about Real Estate Investing in the US?? At Volition, for the past 14 years, we have been focused on helping investors invest in over $250M of real estate and generate $100M of wealth in the Toronto market, but we are always open to learning more about other business models and learning from other investors.
The US has always been an intriguing market to invest in. But the US is a big place… if you’re interested in investing in the US, you probably have a lot of questions, like:
☑️ Specifically WHERE should you invest?
☑️ What are the best markets to invest in and why?
☑️ How much are property prices there?
☑️ What are the returns like?
☑️ What is cashflow like?
☑️ Compared to investing in Toronto or other cities in Ontario, what are the benefits / tradeoffs?
☑️ What ownership structure should I use?
☑️ What are the tax implications?
☑️ Can I get financing?
☑️ What are tenants like?
Enter Erwin Szeto, a longtime friend of Volition. Since 2005, Erwin Szeto and his team have navigated the challenging landscape of being landlords in Ontario. Now, they are shifting their focus and guiding their clients' investments toward the more landlord-friendly environment of the USA. This decision comes after assisting Canadian clients in transacting over $440,000,000 in income properties. Faced with issues like affordability constraints, tenant-friendly laws, rent control, and rental licensing in Canada, Erwin sees a clear opportunity in the U.S. Here, there is a significant influx of investments leading to the creation of high-paying manufacturing jobs. Erwin and his clients are poised to capitalize on these opportunities where landlord rights are stronger and there is no rent control.
To facilitate this transition, Erwin has partnered with and become a client of SHARE, a one-stop-shop U.S. Asset Manager. Founded by Canadians for Canadians, SHARE enables as passive an ownership experience as possible for landlords in the U.S., while still maintaining direct, 100% ownership.

How to Build Multifamily and Laneway Suites in Toronto!! (feat. Expert Archi...Volition Properties
How to Build Multifamily and Laneway Suites in Toronto!! (feat. Expert Architect - Adam D. Brander)
For the first time ever, Volition Properties is hosting an event that will focus on the architectural design, development, and approvals process of transforming single-family homes into lucrative Multifamily Investment properties. The "4+1" business model (i.e. 4plex + Laneway Suite) is quickly becoming one of the most popular development opportunities in Toronto. That said, if your aspirations are even larger, we will also be touching on development opportunities up to 10 units, and also up to 30 units as well!!
We're thrilled to introduce Adam Brander, a pioneer among development-focused architects in Toronto, specializing in multifamily conversions. Adam's expertise lies in navigating the complexities of building design, approval processes, and permit acquisition. Adam has helped many Volition investors design and get approvals for Legal Luxury Triplexes and Fourplexes in Toronto.
While the City of Toronto has made recent legislative changes which make multifamily conversions more accessible and cost-effective, the process still remains intricate and fraught with pitfalls. Adam will be covering a range of important topics, including:
☑️ What to look for in a development site and in an existing building
☑️ How big are you allowed to build?
☑️ The impact of recent changes brought by Bill 23
☑️ How to save hundreds of thousands of dollars in development charges
☑️ Navigating the Committee of Adjustment (COA) approval process, and the new rules that limit appeals by NIMBY neighbors
☑️ Understanding the HST exemptions applicable to multifamily building projects
☑️ Designing for energy efficiency to qualify for CMHC MLI Select, securing significantly more favorable financing terms
And that's just the beginning. Whether you're curious about the potential of laneway suites or the intricacies of building 4+1 structures, this event is your gateway to informed investment and architectural design.
Don't miss this opportunity to learn from the best & network with like-minded investors who are already doing these types of development projects. Reserve your spot today and transform your vision into reality by taking your first step toward multifamily real estate development success!

Should I Buy Now OR Wait Until 2024? + Mortgage Update with Expert Hugo Dos ReisVolition Properties
This meetup is going to be a DOUBLE HEADER featuring Matthew Lee & Ming Lim from Volition answering the single most FAQ the Volition team has been asked in the past few months is: "Should I buy NOW or WAIT until 2024?"... PLUS we’re bringing Expert Mortgage Broker Hugo Dos Reis (Partner at Vine Group) to give us an update on Interest Rates & the Mortgage Industry.
***
Part 1: Matthew Lee & Ming Lim from Volition Properties
“Should I buy NOW or WAIT until 2024?" We will reframe this question that is on everyone's mind, cut through the noise, and give you the real story of what’s happening in the market. We’ll dive into topics and recent developments including:
-Interest Rates & Inflation & Market Psychology
- Fallout of Sept 6 Bank of Canada Rate announcement and predictions of Fall Real Estate Market trends
- What is happening to Rents?
- “OMG I’m cashflow negative on an existing investment property, now what??” Strategies for dealing with negative cashflow.
- How do I know if this is a good time to BUY my primary residence / investment property?
- How do I know if this is a good time to SELL my primary residence / investment property?
- Examples of solid investment opportunities
- Examples of primary residence opportunities
MORE IMPORTANTLY... We will be talking about WHAT YOU SHOULD BE DOING AS AN INVESTOR to be successful in the current volatile environment. As with everything we do, Volition doesn't just read and regurgitate headlines, we will go deep PAST the "research & analysis" that any monkey can do, and actually SYNTHESIZE this into meaningful, actionable strategies and tactics in order to mitigate risk, boost cashflow, and build sustainable wealth.
Toronto has never been an easy market to invest in. Beside Vancouver, it is probably the single most challenging market to invest in in Canada. Volition makes it viable and achievable. We Make Toronto Work!
***
Part 2: Hugo Dos Reis from Vine Group
Mortgage Updates:
- BOC announcement and impacts on mortgage markets
- OSFI changes effective Oct. 31
- Interest rate forecasts
- Refinancing laneway suites
- High net worth programs and how they work
- Reverse mortgages
- Recommendation if buying/refinancing today
Remember: "There are only two types of real estate investors out there: ones who HAVE run out of money, and those who WILL run out of money." Let's all be the latter!!
Financing is the SINGLE BIGGEST CHALLENGE facing real estate investors.
We strive to solve problems, so we’re bringing in a titan in the industry, Hugo Dos Reis. Hugo is a partner at VINE Group, one of the top mortgage brokerages in Canada. They fund billions (that's not a typo!) in mortgages every year and have the expertise to handle complex investor and personal portfolios.
Volition Properties. Talking about real estate investments OUTSIDE TORONTO?? What has this world come to??? I bet you never thought you'd see the day, right??
Here's the reality. We know that Toronto isn't for everyone. While we are contrarians in our belief that Toronto is actually a great place to invest (which we've taught for over a decade now!), we realize that different investors have different goals, aspirations, goals, and capabilities.
***
Enter: Erwin Szeto (…My next guest requires no introduction…) 😂
Just kidding!! Many of you will already know Erwin as a titan in the Real Estate Investment and Wealth Building space; but for those who don't, Erwin has been a bedrock and a beacon of light for investors across Canada. We love Erwin because his ethos mirrors that of our own at Volition… a heavy focus on education, coaching, mentorship, and leveling up everyone around us.
You might know Erwin from Mr. Hamilton, or Rockstar Real Estate, or iWin, or the Wealth Hacker Conferences attended by thousands, headlined by Grant Cardone and Jesse Itzler, or from his podcast "The Truth About Real Estate Investing… for Canadians" that is currently ranked as #81 in the WORLD for Business, or as a four-time Award Winning Investor Realtor, or when he won the Michael Millenaar Real Estate Leadership Award twice, etc, etc, etc… (I'm sure I've missed over half of his accolades). OR maybe you're a client of his wife Cherry Chan's accounting firm (a real estate investor focussed accountant, by the way…!), and together they have a registered charity, the "Hamilton Basket Brigade", that provides warm winter wear to poor school children.
Speaking of Erwin's podcast "The Truth About Real Estate Investing…for Canadians"... Volition's own Ming Lim & Matthew Lee were guests on it not too long ago! Come and watch this episode of "Investing in Multi-Family Downtown Toronto"!
Point is… this is not a Meetup you're going to want to miss. Erwin will be coming to grace us with his presence and will be doing a deep dive into real estate investment business models that are (like Volition's) risk mitigated, headache mitigated (he calls it “return on grief"), consistent, resilient, and scalable. And the kicker is… they are located outside Toronto, so they will be at a much more AFFORDABLE price point, which makes it a more ACCESSIBLE alternative to Toronto for the everyday investor.
***
More specifically, he'll be discussing areas such as:
- Who is this investment strategy right for?
- Where / which markets? Is it just Hamilton… or elsewhere too?
- What is the investment business model?
- How much are the properties?- - How much capital / mortgage qualification is required?
- Expectations on ROI and cashflow?
- What is this whole Bill-23 thing everyone is talking about?
- How this model is similar in ideology and strategy to Volition's OWN investment business model here in Toronto?

They fund billions (that's not a typo!) in mortgages every year and have the expertise to handle complex investor and personal portfolios.
Following on the heels of our January Meetup where we identified Toronto real estate investment opportunities, financing is the next step in the journey to start or continue real estate investing!
Hugo will cover a broad range of topics relevant to both novice real estate investors looking to take action, and sophisticated investors seeking opportunities to take advantage of market conditions and expand real estate portfolios.
***
Key topics:
- Headwinds and opportunities – What should investors do in 2023?
- Proposed OSFI changes (e.g., HELOC regulations) – update on new policies and insights
Industry changes and risk appetite – impact and updates on lender rules
- Reverse mortgages – how and when to use them
Remember: "There are only two types of real estate investors out there: ones who HAVE run out of money, and those who WILL run out of money." Let's all be the latter!!

About Hugo Dos Reis:
Hugo Dos Reis is a Mortgage Broker and Founding Partner at Vine Group, one of Canada’s leading mortgage companies in volume and the #1 team at Mortgage Alliance Canada for the past five years.
With 12+ years of experience in the financial sector and a Bay Street Alumni, Hugo and his team lead investment financing solutions for clients across Canada. Hugo has provided financial planning education presentations to thousands of investors through seminars and workshops, has authored numerous articles, contributed insights to several news outlets and hosted a financial news segment for the multi-unit rental sector.
His signature client-focused approach, value-added advice, and background in financial planning are what have helped Hugo with his success year over year. Hugo’s philosophy is to “take care of your clients, and they will take care of you.”
In his spare time, you can find Hugo at one of Toronto’s many restaurants enjoying all things food and wine with his wife or at one of the local parks burning off some energy with his two young daughters.
Over the past 7 years, our Meetup has focused on teaching the ‘hows’ of real estate investment to over 4000+ investors – the economic fundamentals, strategies, and business models. In this session, we will switch gears to help you connect your ‘hows’ to your ‘whys’, starting with arguably the biggest reason we seek to build wealth: to support our families – young, old, and future.
Many of us are part of the “sandwich generation” with children and aging parents or loved ones whom we hope to support through our investment strategies. With Toronto’s uniquely challenging context (high costs of living, childcare, education, health/elder care) planning with and navigating toward this goal is an incredibly tall order for most.
This session will feature a recent Volition client and how she leveraged a combination of Real Estate and Private Wealth Management to provide the best housing/care option for her parents, both living with dementia. Our interactive panel session will feature her “Dream Team” of experts/service providers (including Care & Aging Consultants, Real Estate Experts, Private Wealth Management) to share how they used an Integrative Approach to devise and optimize a real estate + financial plan to support her parents and her young family.
While each client/family’s goals and needs are unique, the session will illustrate the immense value of an integrated and empathic team of experts, especially when serving a family during its most challenging transitions. We will show how our team strategically used different investment products (e.g., real estate, structured notes) to help meet her family’s near and long-term goals of high quality care + housing and intergenerational financial sustainability.
This session will address questions like:
- My aging parents own their home free and clear, but do they have enough savings to pay for future health/care costs?
- At what point should I encourage my aging parents to downsize from their house to a smaller/safer place? What should they look for when “downsizing”?
- How do we plan/invest for uncertainty (e.g., health diagnosis/prognosis)?
- I want to keep my aging parents / loved ones in their home for as long as possible … but what if they (eventually) need help? What kind of help might they need, and how do I plan for it?
- Elder care isn’t covered by OHIP?! So, what are our options? What can and can’t we afford?
- How do I help my parents while preserving my financial stability for my own/future children?
- I don’t want to burden my children when I’m older or need care. So, how do I plan ahead?
Own A House In Toronto For The Same $$$ And Monthly Carry Cost As A CondoVolition Properties
Seems like a fantasy, right?
Every newspaper headline you read these days is talking about how Toronto is so unaffordable for the average Torontonian, and how the next generation of Millennials and Gen-Z’s are priced out of the housing market. Far too often, we hear that aspiring homeowners feel that they can't afford to buy a home in Toronto, or North York, or Richmond Hill, or Markham, or Sauga, or wherever they wish they could live. The odds are simply stacked against them – even if they have enough for a downpayment, they can't afford the monthly carrying costs! Instead, they move out to Hamilton, Windsor, St. Catherines, purely because of affordability.
Volition is blazing a trail forward, creating solutions for the unaffordability issue, and to show you how owning and living in a house in Toronto can be reality, not a fantasy! Definitely, GTA is more expensive than outside GTA – there is no question – and yes, not everyone can realistically afford a home in the GTA. That said, we will offer a different perspective on how to "afford" a home in the GTA, and offer practical solutions and strategies on how to "make GTA work".
In fact, we touch on some of this in the article that HGTV.ca wrote about Volition entitled: "Expert Tips That Will Help You Become a Homeowner Before 40". But in this Meetup, we are going to go much much deeper into actionable strategies & tactics that you can employ... and more importantly, HOW to do it.
Sure, it's not easy. Sure, it might take a bit more work. Sure, it still won't mean that you'll live in your "dream home" right off the bat. But for those who are resourceful, purposeful, and willing to do what it takes, Volition's Advisory & Realty services may be able to help turn that dream of home ownership in the GTA into reality.
And yes... all of our Investor Realtor expertise and insights are relevant here. Tenant profiles, rents, renovations, real estate development, gentrification, transit, infrastructure improvements, etc. Bringing an investor mindset allows you to think differently about your Primary Residence, and gives you the ability to turn your biggest liability (yes, your Primary Residence is a liability... it's actually a luxury!) into your biggest asset. And in thinking about it in these terms, it could help you actually "afford" you buying and living in the GTA.
We’ll also be showing you examples of the types of houses you would be able to buy and execute on this strategy.
Most importantly, we’re going to describe the conditions under which this works. But you might need to light a fire under your butt and take massive action NOW… this is a small window of opportunity, and it could slam shut at any moment.
We are venturing out to change mindsets: if you ever dreamed of owning a house in Toronto, but didn’t know how to afford it, THIS MEETUP is your starting point.
Just because you live in Toronto or GTA, doesn't automatically make you a Toronto investment expert. At Volition, we have been debunking myths about the viability of investing in Toronto for the past 14 years.

But in this Meetup, we are going to go much much deeper into actionable strategies & tactics that you can employ... and more importantly, HOW to do it.
Far too often, we hear that aspiring home owners feel that they can't afford to buy a home in Toronto, or North York, or Richmond Hill, or Markham, or Sauga, or wherever they wish they could live. The odds are simply stacked against them – even if they have enough for a downpayment, they can't afford the monthly carrying costs! Instead, they move out to Hamilton, Windsor, St. Catherines, purely because of affordability.
We are venturing out to change mindsets. Definitely, GTA is more expensive than outside GTA – there is no question – and yes, not everyone can realistically afford a home in the GTA. That said, we will offer a different perspective on how to "afford" a home in the GTA, and offer practical solutions and strategies on how to "make GTA work".
Sure, it's not easy. Sure, it might take a bit more work. Sure, it still won't mean that you'll find your "dream home" for less than $1M (or $1.X M, actually!). But for those who are resourceful, purposeful, and willing to do what it takes, Volition's Advisory & Realty services may be able to help turn that dream of home ownership in the GTA into reality.
Does Investing in Toronto Real Estate Still Make Sense Today?Volition Properties
The single most FAQ the Volition team has been asked in the past few months is: "Does Investing in Toronto Real Estate Still Make Sense Today?".
We will reframe this question that is on everyone's mind, and dive into topics and recent developments including:
- Rising Interest Rates
- Inflation
- War in Ukraine and global uncertainty
- Non-Resident Speculation Tax (NRST) increase
- Open Bidding Process
- Rising Prices
- What is happening to Rents?
- Proposals for City of Toronto changes to the development process to build triplexes/4plexes (and up to 4 storeys)
- Garden Suites legislation
- Restrictions on using HELOC for downpayments
- "Flipping Tax" vs. Principal Residence
- Is this a good time to buy a primary residence / investment property?
- Is this a good time to sell my primary residence / investment property?
MORE IMPORTANTLY... We will be talking about WHAT YOU DO AS AN INVESTOR to be successful in the current volatile environment. As with everything we do, Volition doesn't just read and regurgitate headlines, we will go deep PAST the "research & analysis" that any monkey can do, and actually SYNTHESIZE this into meaningful, actionable strategies and tactics in order to mitigate risk, boost cashflow, and build sustainable wealth.
Toronto has never been an easy market to invest in. Beside Vancouver, it is probably the single most challenging market to invest in in Canada. Volition makes it viable and achievable. We Make Toronto Work! (in fact, HGTV recent tapped us for our thoughts too :))

Insuring Your Real Estate Investment Success
1. Downtown Toronto (Annex) Real Estate Investors
Coverage pitfalls to look out for in your investment property insurance policy
Investing is your business.
Insuring it is ours.
2. Most Common Pitfalls
Named Perils/Fire & Extended Coverage vs. Broad Form Coverage
Actual Cash Value vs. Replacement Cost
Permission for vacancy period
Limited Coverage during vacancy
Vandalism caused by tenants
Rental Income Insurance
Sewer Back-up, Flood & Earthquake, and sump pump coverage.
3. Named Perils/Fire & Extended Coverage vs. Broad Form
There are two forms that your investment property may be currently insured under:
Named Perils Coverage This form is limited to the causes of loss that are
named on the policy. Named Perils form is a more “restrictive” coverage
form. You do not get as much coverage as you would get on a Broad form.
OR
Broad Form Coverage This form is highly recommended as it covers “all
causes of loss” unless excluded.
4. Actual Cash Value vs. Replacement Cost
Methods by which your insurance company may calculate the amount it will
pay for your loss. Two common ways are:
Replacement Cost is the cost to replace the property with new materials of
like kind and quality, without depreciation. This is the most favorable.
Actual Cash Value is the cost to replace the property minus deduction for
depreciation. Also known as market value. It represents the dollar amount
you could expect to receive for the item if you sold it in the marketplace
excluding the land value.
5. Vacancy Allowance Period
Most policies have an exclusion on the policy that indicates that if the home was
vacant for more than 30 consecutive days, a loss would not be covered. You must
notify your insurance broker if your property is vacant for more than 30 days. They will
have to add a vacancy permit to your policy. There is typically a charge for this.
However, some insurance packages designed specifically for investment properties
may have a longer vacancy period allowance. This is certainly helpful considering a
rental property may be vacant until tenants are found.
Conditions to keep in mind relating to this permission:
- All doors and windows be securely closed and locked.
- All rubbish be removed from within the described buildings and premises.
- Buildings must be checked a minimum of once a week or more depending.
- You have shut off the water supply and drained the system and appliance of water, or
you have maintained heat in the building and have made arrangements to assure
heat is continued.
6. Vacancy During the Regular Heating
Season
Residential policies usually have a stipulation that if you are away
for more than 4 consecutive days during the usual heating season,
they will only cover water damage resulting from freezing if you can
establish the following: i). you or your tenant arranged for a
competent person to enter your dwelling each day you were away to
ensure that heat was being maintained, ii) you shut off the water or
iii) your system is connected by a monitored heating alarm system
to a station providing 24 hour service. Is your tenant really going to
do this? A ruptured pipe, undetected for 2 or more days can easily
cause $60,000 worth of damage and often much more.
7. Damage/Vandalism Caused by Tenants
This is a common exclusion on most rental property policies. You retain the
loss if your tenants damage or vandalize the building. It is recommended
that you double check with your insurance carrier to ensure that this is
included.
Damages can be significant if you get an angry tenant.
8. Rental Income Insurance
After an insured loss and during the period of restoration, rental income
insurance will reimburse you for the rental income that you were getting
prior to the loss. Check with your insurance broker or agent to be certain
that you have this coverage.
Is the Rental Income Insurance on an Actual Loss Sustained basis? Actual
Loss Sustained basis means that there is no limit on the rental income.
However, this does not mean an unlimited source of payment for your loss.
The loss must still be proven and the proof is the amount that will be paid.
There is also a limit as to when the rental income coverage is paid out. For
example,12- 24 months. It varies between policies.
9. Sewer Back-Up, Flood & Earthquake
Always ensure you have these as part of your insurance package.
Sewer back up – Loss or damage caused directly by the backing up of
sewers, sumps or drains.
Flood – waves, tides, tidal waves, and the rising of, the breaking out or the
overflow of any body of water, whether natural or man made.
Earthquake – snowslide, landslide, or other earth movements occuring
concurrently with and directly resulting from an earthquake shock.
10. Tenants Insurance Recommendation
Always recommend that your tenants have tenants insurance. It is not
uncommon to ask for a copy of their policy for your own peace of mind.
If there is a loss and the tenants are negligent, your insurance company can
recover the loss from their insurance company if they are insured. This
avoids the payout from showing on your record.
If there is a slip and fall incident and your tenant was negligent, it will likely
be your policy that responds if your tenant does not carry insurance. Even if
there is no payout, there is still defence costs that are involved in lawsuits.
This means that the claim will be shown on your loss history report, hence
could result in higher insurance premiums on renewal.
11. How much should you insure your building for?
You should insure your building for the amount of money it would cost to re-
build the structure. The cost of land or the market value of the property does
not have any bearing on the cost to rebuild.
Don’t forget to take into consideration Detached Structures – Coverage for
sheds, detached garages and other structures not connected to the main
dwelling itself.
12. Contents Insurance Limit
You should insure your contents for the figure it would cost to replace them.
Being a “landlord”, there may be some items such as appliances and
furniture that you own and would want to replace following an insured loss.
The tenant should be insuring their own contents. Your policy does not
cover their contents.
14. What type of properties are eligible?
• Single Family Homes
• Duplexes/Triplexes/ Etc.
• Apartment Buildings
• Commercial Buildings
• Condominiums Residential and Commercial
• Student Housing

17. Claims Examples
• Tenant Vandalism – A client of mine who owns and manages over
120+ properties had a tenant that was mentally ill which he was not
aware of, and had stopped taking her medication.
• The tenant used the floors and walls as a canvas for her artwork
she carved with knives and paint.
• She turned off the water and began using the bathtubs and sinks to
go to the bathroom.
• She used the home as a personal garbage
• Total Damage – $21,279 dollars paid by our insurance company
• This claim would not be covered under most policies.
19. Claims Examples
• Not Paid – Client who had not yet moved all of his policies to our company
suffered a water damage loss from a burst pipe causing over 42,000 in
water damage. His tenant moved out two weeks early without alerting my
client and the following stipulation in his policy did not allow the claim to be
paid
• “The following loss or damage if they occur while the building is under
construction or vacant even if permission of construction or vacancy is
granted by us;
• Glass or breakage
• Loss or damage caused by vandalism
• Water damage
• THIS EXACT SAME CLAIM WOULD BE COVERED UNDER OUR POLICY
