Hi guys, I'm looking into buying a condo in the range of $190k to $250k and would like to rent it out. I've got relatives in Canada and they are all in construction business since years, so getting a mortgage shouldn't be too much of a problem. However I'll be most of the time outside Canada due to other obligations. I've got PR and I'm aware that I'm running the risk of losing my PR status if I stay too long outside Canada, but that is another story. On the other side I don't need a visa to enter Canada with my passport, so in the worst if lose my PR it's not the end of the world.
But how about renting out an apartment? Does anyone know if I need a special license or whatsoever to be able to rent out a property?
And would it make any sense to do so? I'm kind of afraid that renters could break down the kitchen or anything else and then I'll end paying $10k or more for repairs etc.
Do we have any landlords here that could share their experience? Thanks.
