🎧 How to Choose a Rental Property in Edmonton | Real Estate Investing Canada

In today’s episode, Wayne and Gabby answer a listener's question about how to choose the right rental property in Edmonton. But rather than giving a cookie-cutter response, Wayne breaks down the deeper truth: It depends. Using real examples from their own investing journey, they explain why the "best" property type changes over time β€” and how to stress test your investments so they survive in any market. Plus, they share a big announcement about Wayne's upcoming book, The 5% Ruleβ„’ – The Real Estate Cash Flow Test.
