The Ontario Landlord Guide!

A Step-by-Step Guide for Profits, Success and Financial Security for Ontario Landlords
I want to invest in residential properties and become a landlord. Except I heard being a landlord in Ontario can be really challenging with all the “Tenants from Hell” out there.
Ask any landlord out there. Being a successful Ontario landlord is extremely difficult. Any one sugar-coating it isn’t being honest to you.
Why is it so difficult?
Many non-landlords like to say “landlords need to treat their investment properties as a business.” In part this is true. Some landlords decide to enter the industry without knowledge of the industry, the rules, the laws, you name it.
So with some study of the laws you can be successful?
No. This is what the non-landlords out there don’t understand. You not only have to learn the rules and laws, you need to realize these laws are biased against landlords and in favor of bad tenants.
So it’s not as simple as just reading the government websites?
Exactly. Most of these ‘experts’ wouldn’t survive as year if they were actually investing their own money in investment properties.
So what is the key?
Knowledge is power. Ontario landlords who know the rules and laws, and also know how things “really work” are prepared for success.
What does the Ontario Landlord Guide teach?
