    2026/08/26
    In this episode of Canadian Investing in the U.S., Glen reconnects with repeat guest Matthew Scott, a Canadian real estate investor who has flipped approximately 40 properties in Southwestern Ontario and raised more than $10 million in capital. After travelling to Mexico and deciding to spend more time there, Matthew shifted his attention toward Mexican real estate, land development and the process of preparing land for future development. He discusses his work with local developers, plans to create a real estate agency and his involvement in a large land-entitlement project that could eventually be sold to a developer. Matthew explains how he evaluates potential areas by studying tourism, government development plans, infrastructure expansion and the activity of other developers. The conversation also examines the risks of purchasing land in Mexico, including unclear ownership records, restrictions on certain types of land, unreliable representatives and the importance of working with experienced lawyers and notaries. Matthew discusses cash purchases, financing and residency considerations before sharing how living in Mexico has changed his lifestyle and perspective. He describes his personal experiences with the culture and safety while emphasizing the importance of knowing the area, avoiding flashy displays of wealth and building relationships with trustworthy local professionals.

  • EP433 How Rent Reporting Can Improve Credit Scores and Reduce Late Rent with Steve Harmer

    EP433 How Rent Reporting Can Improve Credit Scores and Reduce Late Rent with Steve Harmer
    2026/08/13
    In this episode of Canadian Investing in the U.S., Glen speaks with Steve Harmer, president of FrontLobby, about how rent reporting and tenant screening can help landlords reduce risk while helping responsible tenants build their credit history. Steve explains how rental payments can be reported to major credit bureaus in both Canada and the United States, including Equifax, TransUnion and Experian depending on the country. Because rent is often a tenant’s largest monthly financial obligation, reporting on-time payments can help establish or strengthen a tenant’s credit profile. Steve also discusses a study conducted with Equifax Canada that found some participants experienced credit-score increases in the range of 40–80 points during their first six months, although the impact varies significantly depending on each tenant's existing credit history. The conversation also explores how landlords can use rent reporting as part of their tenant-screening and rent-collection strategy. Steve explains how landlords can screen applicants using credit reports, background checks and identity verification, while rental-payment history can provide additional insight into how applicants have handled previous leases. They also discuss reporting late or unpaid rent, obtaining tenant consent for positive reporting, reporting former tenant debt, and how small landlords can implement the system with only a few rental properties. Ultimately, the episode shows how rent reporting can create accountability for tenants while rewarding those who consistently pay on time, potentially creating a more balanced relationship between landlords and renters.

  • EP432 Why Real Estate Investors Are Shifting from Flipping to the BRRRR Strategy with Juan Munoz

    EP432 Why Real Estate Investors Are Shifting from Flipping to the BRRRR Strategy with Juan Munoz
    2026/08/06
    In this episode of Canadian Investing in the U.S., Glen speaks with Jeff, an experienced real estate investor, hard money lender and coach who operates Best REI Funding, Alpha Lending and Best Capital Management. Jeff explains how his career evolved from actively flipping houses and managing rentals to focusing primarily on real estate lending and education. He emphasizes that successful investors should avoid becoming locked into a single strategy and instead develop the skills to evaluate whether each property is best suited for wholesaling, flipping, refinancing, holding as a rental or selling on the retail market. Jeff also discusses how higher interest rates have caused a major shift from fix-and-flip projects toward the BRRRR strategy. His lending companies previously financed approximately 80% flips and 20% BRRRR projects, but that ratio has now reversed. The conversation also explores the increasing challenges surrounding DSCR loans, including changing underwriting requirements, reduced loan-to-value ratios, higher reserve requirements and unexpected closing delays. Jeff explains that investors can reduce their risk by underwriting properties with multiple exit strategies and matching the property, financing and investment plan rather than forcing every deal into a predetermined strategy.
