Build a Portfolio, Not Just a Purchase
The same numbers analysis, strategy and risk mitigation Ramon applies to his own holdings.
The same numbers analysis, strategy and risk mitigation Ramon applies to his own holdings.
Where to start, what to avoid, and how to screen a property the way an owner would — not just a buyer.
Mortgage, strata, tax, insurance and maintenance worked out before you offer — not discovered after.
Sequencing your next purchase against what you already hold, so each property strengthens the portfolio.
How a lender views your next mortgage once you already hold rental debt — and how to structure around it.
What to actually look for in the depreciation report, minutes and financials before you commit.
Knowing your exit before you buy — refinance, hold or sell — shapes which property makes sense today.
Illustrative example only — not a real listing or a promise of return. This is the kind of breakdown Ramon runs on an actual property before you write an offer.
| Example | Purchase Price | Down Payment (20%) | Est. Monthly Mortgage | Est. Monthly Rent | Monthly Cash Flow* |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Property A — entry condo | $450,000 | $90,000 | $2,157 | $1,900 | −$257 |
| Property B — townhouse | $650,000 | $130,000 | $3,116 | $2,600 | −$516 |
*Mortgage only — excludes property tax, strata fees, insurance and maintenance. Most Fraser Valley entry-level rentals run cash-flow negative before appreciation and mortgage paydown are factored in. Ramon walks through the full picture, not just the upside, before you decide.
