Dream Home!

So lately the Canadian dollar and the US dollar have been floating pretty close to parity.  Canadian dollar is a lot higher than back in the 70cent US for $1 CAD days.  Also, the economic recession has tanked a lot of the US housing prices.  I also remember looking at US housing prices for vacation homes and time shares, they have significantly dropped too!  For about $100,000 CAD you could buy at least a 3,000 sq ft. monstrosity in the US at the peak of the recession.  For investors, vacation lots like time shares may seem a bit risky because you are not always there to supervise your property but that's what property management is for.  If you pick a retirement area there are always seniors going for vacation like golfing resorts.  While prices are low, snatch a few and watch your residual income roll in.  Reason why I said pick popular retirement areas is because there will always be somebody there so you get more consistent clientele.  Now what is a popular retirement area is for you to figure out ;) Can't tell you all the secrets you know!
