  • The Smith Manoeuvre Explained with Robinson Smith
    Dec 17 2025

    Let Us Know What You Thought Of The Episode

    If you’ve spent any time around Canadian real estate investing or personal finance, you’ve probably heard about the Smith Manoeuvre — usually followed by a lot of mixed opinions and half-answers. In this episode, we slow things down and actually explain how this Canadian wealth-building strategy works when it’s set up the right way.

    I’m joined by Robinson Smith, one of the most trusted voices on the Smith Manoeuvre in Canada. His father created the strategy decades ago, and Robinson has spent his career helping homeowners understand how to use it properly — without confusion, shortcuts, or costly mistakes.

    We talk about how the Smith Manoeuvre really works behind the scenes, why it’s especially relevant in today’s market, and where people tend to go wrong when they piece it together from random online advice. Robinson also shares what needs to be set up from day one, which professionals actually matter, and how to think about risk when investing with borrowed money.

    If you’re a Canadian homeowner curious about turning mortgage debt into a long-term investment strategy — or you’ve tried to understand the Smith Manoeuvre before and felt overwhelmed — this conversation will clear things up fast.

  • Tenant Risk Management with Mackenzie Wilson
    Dec 10 2025

    Let Us Know What You Thought Of The Episode

    This week’s episode is a must-listen for landlords who are feeling the pinch of today’s shifting rental market. Vacancies are sitting longer, rents are flattening or even dropping in some areas, and competition between landlords is picking up fast. That pressure can lead to rushed decisions — and that’s often where costly mistakes begin.

    To break down what’s really happening across Canada, I’m joined by Mackenzie Wilson from SingleKey, one of the most trusted platforms for tenant screening, rent guarantee services, and landlord risk management. Their team has access to national data most landlords never see, and the insights they’re uncovering are incredibly valuable.

    In this episode, we get into:
    • How tenant applications are changing and why more landlords are seeing weaker files
    • What SingleKey’s national data reveals about current renter behaviour and overall risk
    • The key parts of a tenant report that truly matter and the red flags that shouldn’t be overlooked
    • Simple, proactive habits that help landlords stay sharp during slower rental periods
    • How rent guarantee programs can protect your cash flow when the market becomes unpredictable

    If you’re managing rentals — whether it’s one unit or a full portfolio — this conversation will give you practical insight to protect your property, your income, and your peace of mind. It’s timely, relevant, and packed with takeaways you can actually use.

  • The Future of Multifamily with Rob Mills
    Dec 3 2025

    Let Us Know What You Thought Of The Episode

    If you’ve been wondering whether multifamily is still worth your time in this weird economic moment—rate changes, tighter lending, rising costs—you’re not alone. Investors everywhere are trying to figure out what still pencils in 2025 and what could pay off heading into 2026.

    That’s why this week’s guest is the perfect person to weigh in. I sat down with Rob Mills from Equiton, a name investors across Canada know well for multifamily expertise, strong asset management, and a steady read on what’s actually happening on the ground.

    Rob brings a refreshingly clear look at today’s market: what’s working, what’s slowing down, and where real opportunity is showing up for smart, patient investors.

    In this episode, we cover:

    • Whether multifamily still makes sense with today’s economic pressures
    • The pockets of opportunity Equiton is watching as 2026 approaches
    • Short-term headwinds that investors should factor into their underwriting
    • The fundamentals that matter most right now when analyzing deals
    • How newer and experienced investors can plan their long-term strategy with confidence

    If you’re trying to position yourself for the next cycle — and want a grounded take on what’s unfolding in the multifamily space — this conversation is going to hit the spot. Tons of practical insight, real market context, and the kind of clarity that helps you make smarter moves with your portfolio.
