In this episode, our guest Josh Stevenson shares his journey from being a teacher to a full-time real estate investor - what property deals he got into and the strategies he employed to grow to an 87-unit portfolio and enjoys his freedom.

Josh Stevenson has been a property investor for 14 years now. He started in Barrie, Ontario, where he house hacked his first duplex. And then he moved back to his hometown of Orilla, Ontario, where he's been away for about 20 years as he travelled the world for many years and taught English. He came home to Canada and opened an English school that was later shut down by SARS, and started his career in real estate investing from then on.

"We discovered that we could do something called a no-money-down deal. We deal with credit unions now. I found that credit unions are actually way better lenders, and they don't have as strict rules as conventional banks." - Josh Stevenson

"You know the 1% rule, that has been the golden rule for us. Truly believe that's how we've been able to build this portfolio so big. You can look at a building like that, what are the rents? And what is the price?" - Josh Stevenson

In this episode, Jared shares how he started investing in different markets and landed in Peterborough's student rentals. He also talks about the deals he focuses on that speed up his BRRRR strategy, eyeing a goal of a 100-unit portfolio when he turns 45.

Jared Henderson started investing in 2012 in the Golden Horseshoe at the other end in Niagara Falls and wound up in Peterborough after experimenting in a few different markets. The BRRRR process is his main strategy.

Topics Covered:

Episode Takeaways:

"Why do I want to get into student rentals even when people say that they just party and trash the place, which is just not true. That will happen occasionally. But most people have a damage deposit; their parents are co-signing. You're always going to get your rent; rarely, you don't." - Jared Henderson

"The real value, the real equity is working with the right team, the right property managers, the right contractors, for sure. And that includes your legal team, the right mortgage brokers, and once you get a system down, you just rinse and repeat it, because it's simply effective." - Jared Henderson
