Buy and Hold Real Estate Investing in Canada
Buy-and-hold remains the core Canadian investor strategy when the property can support a durable rent thesis, financing remains manageable, and the market offers reasonable downside protection.
Key Ideas
- Good buy-and-hold underwriting starts with rent quality, operating expense realism, and financing resilience.
- The best opportunities often come from discipline on basis rather than aggressive growth assumptions.
- Realist treats market intelligence and deal underwriting as one workflow rather than separate research tasks.
