This week on The Real Escape Investing Podcast, we're sharing top takeaways from the June 16th Equity Builders Club webinar—designed to help you find and win more deals, both on and off market. In a city where good properties get snapped up fast, you need more than luck. You need systems. We cover how to build a deal pipeline, how to stand out to brokers and sellers, and how to get into position to say “no” more often—because you’re seeing more than enough opportunities.

This week on The Real Escape Investing Podcast, we take a step back and ask: Why does Montreal’s housing market function the way it does? From the seigneurial system and colonial land grants to rent control and zoning chaos, Terrie shares research from her upcoming book Squeezed—a deep dive into the political economy behind the city’s housing contradictions. We trace the evolution of land use and asset classes in Montreal to explain today’s quirks: tenant lifers, underpriced units, and the bureaucratic tangle that frustrates even seasoned landlords. If you've ever asked why is it like this?, this episode’s for you.
