In E278B, I share updates on my projects, including the success of my book "Real Estate Titans," the upcoming Audible version, the Bank of Canada's rate cut, changes to the CMHC MLI Select program, a $1.5 million raise for Tobermory hospitality, and significant progress in our Florida off-market acquisitions with Matt Piche, despite some challenges.







First, a big thank you to everyone who bought my book, "Real Estate Titans." We hit bestseller in both digital and paperback! I'm also working on narrating the Audible version myself, which should be ready in a couple of months.







Now, some big news: the Bank of Canada announced a quarter-point interest rate cut. This could boost real estate investing sentiment and increase buying activity, but we have to watch what the US does too, as our rates can't drop too far without risking inflation.







The CMHC MLI Select program has updated its rules. Restrictions on refinancing multi-family buildings are gone, and new requirements for energy efficiency, affordability, or accessibility are in place. Investors are busy adjusting to these changes.







On my end, we're finalizing a $1.5 million raise for our Tobermory hospitality business to add amenities like a pool and sauna at our Grotto Getaway glamping site. The aim is to extend guest stays and boost revenue.







In Florida, Mat Piche and I are full steam ahead with off-market acquisitions, spending $15,000 monthly on lead generation. We got 90 leads last week and have multiple offers in play. Despite some challenges, we're seeing great progress, including a new team member securing a $180,000 profit deal in her first week.

In E278 of the Andrew Hines Real Estate Investing Podcast, I had the pleasure of welcoming Michael Emanuele onto my podcast for the first time, and it was a fantastic conversation. We've known each other online for a while, exchanged some messages, and now we're finally making this happen. Thanks for joining us, Michael.







Michael shares that he got into investing during C0VID, starting with stocks and eventually transitioning to real estate. In June 2021, he left his corporate job as a project manager and dove into real estate full-time. He started listening to the REI podcasts and read "Rich Dad, Poor Dad," which was a game-changer for him.







He joined a networking and support membership group in Oakville and found it provided an immense value. His first investment was a condo in Oakville, which he rented out initially and then renovated. By 2020, it had doubled in value. He used the equity to invest in more properties, including a pre-construction condo in Toronto and a single-family home in Kitchener.







Recently, Michael partnered with another investor in Kitchener and is working on multiple projects, despite facing challenges like low appraisals. He's also started investing in Ohio, USA, to diversify and take advantage of favorable landlord rights and cash flow potential.







Michael's journey highlights the importance of continuous learning, networking, and staying adaptable in real estate investing. His story is a great example of how dedication and the right mindset can lead to success in this field.

In E277 of the Andrew Hines Real Estate Investing Podcast, I had the pleasure of welcoming Patrick Banc onto my podcast for the first time, and it was a fantastic conversation. Patrick's journey from a secure government job to the adventurous world of real estate investing is truly inspiring. He shared how his parents, who fled communist Poland, laid the foundation for his interest in real estate by purchasing and renovating pre-construction homes. Patrick himself got into the game at a young age, buying his first house at 22 and quickly learning the ropes of property management and renovation.







We delved into his transition from being a truck mechanic to a full-time real estate investor, highlighting his strategic move to live with his parents to save money for his first down payment. Patrick’s story is a testament to the power of discipline, hard work, and seizing opportunities. Despite facing challenges, like dealing with difficult tenants and managing multiple renovations, he has built a successful path.







His current ventures include flipping properties and expanding his business into the United States. Patrick emphasized the importance of surrounding oneself with supportive and like-minded individuals, continuous learning, and maintaining a disciplined lifestyle. His success is also attributed to leveraging social media for networking and raising funds, which has significantly contributed to his achievements in real estate.







Overall, Patrick's story is a compelling example of how determination and strategic planning can lead to success in real estate investing. His insights and experiences provide valuable lessons.

In E276 of the Andrew Hines Real Estate Investing Podcast, I had the pleasure of interviewing Dane Buttenaar. Dane started as a landscaper and has transitioned into land development, establishing his own construction company focusing on infill developments and multi-family projects in Port Elgin and Southampton, Ontario. He shared his journey, emphasizing the strategic shift to purpose-built rentals driven by high demand from the local Bruce Power plant, and how these projects remain profitable despite rising property prices in Canada.







Dane dove into the details of his various developments, including a major project expected to yield nearly 700 units. This ambitious undertaking comprises a mix of single-family homes, triplexes, duplexes, and apartment buildings. He walked us through the challenges of navigating zoning changes, the intricacies of land development, and his strategy for maintaining profitability by building efficiently and scaling his operations. Dane also highlighted his approach to partnering with investors, outlining the financial and long-term benefits of purpose-built rentals.







We also covered Dane's successful value-add projects, like motels converted into short-term rentals. By leveraging his construction and landscaping expertise, Dane has created high-value rental units that cater to local demand, especially from workers at the nearby power plant. Throughout our conversation, Dane offered practical advice for investors looking to embark on similar projects, stressing the importance of thorough due diligence, strategic planning, and tapping into local market opportunities.
