#202: Allison McMurter-Hughes - Protecting Your Property Against Fraudsters in the GTA
Real Estate news has been challenging the last few months, and recently in the news individuals have had their houses sold right out from under them. We invited Allison McMurter-Hughes from McMurter & Associates to chat about this and title insurance. Maybe home owners were away on vacation, or maybe they moved out to do renos, only to find out that someone forged or copied their ID, got their house listed, usually at a reduced price to encourage a quick sale and sold their house! Sometimes home owners have come home to find strangers even living in their homes! Allison McMurter is here to give us details as to who is more susceptible to this, what can be done to prevent it as well as the benefits of title insurance, but if it does happen what you need to do immediately to correct things.
If YOU own properties, especially ones where you are a distance landlord or take vacations away from your properties, THIS is a must LISTEN!

Bio
Melanie and Dave Dupuis, well known as Investor Mel & Dave, are innovative real estate investors, best-selling authors and award-winning mentors who have SOLELY acquired over 240 apartments in just a few short years in Canada, the US, Mexico, Dominican Republic and Costa Rica. Their strategy gives them the ability to purchase properties… without using any of their own money or relying on joint ventures. This also allows them to own 100% of the property - which means they keep 100% of the equity, cash flow, and appreciation.
With over 23 years of combined experience in real estate investing, Investor Mel & Dave are founders of the Action FamilyTM Mentorship Program and are dedicated to helping individuals create their own time, location, and financial freedoms. They do this by helping them build their real estate portfolio without using their own funds while solely keeping ownership. To date, they’ve helped over 1500 students in Canada and the United States get started on their real estate investing journey.
Starting out, Mel was working full-time at her local college, and Dave was a full-time firefighter. They understand what it’s like to be stuck in the ‘hamster wheel’ of trading time for money. But they knew they wanted a better life for their family, so they chose to step up and make real estate investing work no matter what. After discovering the “Creative Financing” strategies they now use, they were able to purchase 12 properties in 12 months (56 units) in 2017 and both quit their jobs in their 30s.
Following a horrific life-changing highway crash in 2018, they wrote a Real Estate Investing book “Real Estate Investing Secrets” which topped the Amazon #1 Best Seller list early in its launch. As well, Mel is the co-author of “The Only Woman in the Room”, which also achieved Bestseller status. They are living proof that if you don’t let anything stop you, success can be yours.
They won the 2019 Chamber of Commerce - Small Business of the Year Award, the 2020 Canadian Business Award as Leading Experts in Real Estate Investing, the 2021 Canadian Business Award as Top Real Estate Mentors and the 2022 CBRB Best Investors in Canada Award.
In their free time, Mel & Dave enjoy relaxing at their cottage (purchased with OPM), spending time with their 3 kids and 2 dogs (Rexy and Millie), and creating unforgettable memories on family trips.
Along with podcast appearances on shows like The Real Brad Lea and Bigger Pockets, and stage appearances with Kevin O’Leary (Shark Tank) and Michelle Ramanow (Dragon’s Den) Mel and Dave are well known on social media.

Bio
My name is Isaiah Henry and I am 28 years old. Born and raised in Pickering ON. Fell in love with athletics at a young age and was able to take my talents to Wilfrid Laurier University where I received an athletic scholarship and was fortunate to become a dual athlete while playing Rugby and Football.
Upon graduating I pursued a career in long enforcement where I gained positions at Metrolinx as Special Constable and then the Toronto Police Service as a Police Officer.
In terms of my investing career I started in 2017 after seeing an ad in the local paper about a new pre con project in Toronto. After the condo I was pretty uninvolved in real estate until 2019 where I picked up a condo townhouse in oshawa ON.
I began learning more about REinvesting and started taking on long distance projects in Windsor, Sudbury and Timmins. Currently I am focusing on Timmins ON where the majority of my portfolio is located. I manage all my areas remotely and have created a property management company to help serve other investors in the area. Some may even call me the Mayor of T-Town .
Going forward I would like to keep working with more JV partners and continue to scale into small multi family properties in Timmins ON. I would also like to continue to grow my property management company as well as some of the other active businesses I have on the go.

Listen out for Gary’s tip from a quote, that's crucial to success and happiness!
WHAT YOU'LL LEARN:
Bio
Ryan Carr is a full-time real estate investor from the Durham Region who specializes in helping homeowners get out of tough situations. His company, R.W. Carr Investments, has completed dozens of transactions with people across the GTA where debt, timing, maintenance, and repairs, or family nuances are a critical component to the deal.
Additional information about Ryan:
As a prior auto mechanic and custom metal fabricator, his involvement with real estate began in 2012 with a rural bank-sale property, quickly followed by the first "fixer-upper" bungalow. Previous to the vertical split technique (A clever method of adding 2nd units to existing homes), this bungalow was converted to a legal basement apartment. The progression from these initial properties, and subsequent resale lead to fantastic experiences which propelled the concept of "vertical split" homes into the marketplace. As home values began to rise with the Durham Region, the cash flow crunch became the mainstream, which transformed the housing industry in 2 ways. The first being a solution to covering monthly expenses on properties, and the second being outside investor interest. His business now focuses on purchasing properties from homeowners in sticky situations quickly and quietly.
Ryan also is also involved in partner opportunities, mentorship programs, and speaking engagements. He continues to innovate the industry with residential real estate purchases, coaching, new construction techniques, JV Partnerships, flipping, and small scale development. The purchasing of residential real estate has become a true passion, not just a business endeavour.

He saved his earnings for six years until he had enough for a down payment on an investment property. Tyson has been featured on CBC News, Global News Toronto, CFPL 980 Radio station, 30 Minutes to Wealth (Season Two), and Kijiji Canada Commercial.

Jack has been investing only 4 years in North Bay, but has achieved massive success by showing no fear and knowing his numbers. He didn’t want to work a 9-5 anymore, so bought his first JV at 19 and hasn’t looked back, by refi-ing and buying multi-unit. No matter your age, if YOU are wanting more time and money freedom than a 9-5 job offer you, THIS podcast is for you!
WHAT YOU'LL LEARN:
Bio
Hi, I’m Jack Drinkwalter, I’m a young real-estate entrepreneur born and raised in North Bay, Ontario. I started buying rental properties while attending my local University and working full time as a car salesman. My first deal was a house Hack. I purchased a 5-bedroom house, lived in one bedroom and rented out the others to friends. In 2020 during covid I purchased my second property with a JV partner (My Dad) we purchased a run-down duplex and implemented the BRRRR strategy. After refinancing my second deal I’ve been able to scale fairly quickly. I now own 8 properties (23 units) and a property management/contracting company “Aedo Properties” that currently manages 40 units for other investors.
