#131: Adelaide & Renate Carriere - Never Too Young, Never Too Late
On this week’s show Gary chats with Adelaide Carriere and her grandmother Renate, who bought their first investment property together. This episode is for new investors, or those considering getting into it. If you’re 18 or 60, this show talks about the basics and fundamentals of investing, searching for a property, screening, property management and more! Adelaide started as the admin at Smart Home Choice, and became interested in becoming a real estate investor by asking a lot of questions, and deciding to invest at age 18!
WHAT YOU’LL LEARN:
Adelaide’s Bio
Adelaide Carriere is a 20-year-old entrepreneur, real estate agent & real estate investor on a mission to lead with intent, inspire people, and innovate.
As a young girl, Adelaide loved to read books and would take any opportunity to learn from the people around her. At age 12, Adelaide picked up 2 books that would change how she saw the world & reshape her mindset. The Secret by Rhonda Byrne and Rich Dad, Poor Dad by Robert Kiyosaki taught her the importance of financial literacy and a positive mindset. After reading both books several times, Adelaide knew her purpose was something greater than she’d imagined but didn’t know where to start.
Adelaide was accepted into university but decided to pursue real estate instead and completed the Humber Real Estate Salesperson program in 2021. Her initial interest in real estate began in March 2019 while employed at Smart Home Choice. One day Adelaide asked at what age she could begin investing and Gary revealed that she could start now if she wanted to. The conversation propelled her on a journey of determination to see if it was true that she could own property despite being young, financially unstable, and unable to qualify for a mortgage.
October 2019 while at an event featuring the world’s best motivational speaker, Les Brown, Adelaide was introduced to Mathew Frederick, a real estate investor with over 30 years of experience and many mentees. After a little persistence, Mathew agreed to mentor Adelaide as well.
With the support and encouragement of her mentors, Adelaide convinced her grandparents to take a chance and invest with her. Now, she and her grandmother Renate, are on a mission together to create generational wealth and encourage others to do the same. Their goals are to show people under 30 that they don’t necessarily need to follow what society says and should feel comfortable taking a chance, while showing people over 30 the importance of building generational wealth for their families.
In March 2020 during the Covid-19 pandemic, Adelaide & Renate partnered to purchase their first investment property in Pembroke, Ontario.
Renate Carriere was born in the Czech Republic and was 13 years old when her family immigrated to what they called “the land of opportunities,” bringing only a suitcase and being unable to speak the English language. As her family attempted to establish a new life in Canada, Renate watched how her parents purchased land near water to build a cottage, purchased their primary home, and then several rental properties. Renate saw it, but never knew HOW it was done.
Growing into a young and curious adult, she became an entrepreneur and this spirit followed Renate throughout her life. She’s had businesses from cleaning, pizza takeout, to owning a working farm.
Aside from her parents, Renate’s first experience investing in real estate began when she and her husband purchased land and built a home in Pickering, Ontario. The home consisted of one 2-level main unit, and 2 lower basement units one under the other (as the home was on a hill.) After considering the benefits of her own previous real estate investment, she decided to take a chance (now 37 years later) and invest with Adelaide as she trusted that Adelaide had the knowledge and tools that could contribute to a successful partnership. Renate plans to grow their portfolio and educate the rest of her grandchildren on the benefits of real estate investing.

#126: Build Back Better - Real Estate Investing Forecast 2021

WHAT YOU’LL LEARN:
Frank’s Bio
At 18 years of age I started my first company, CanClean, which specialized in commercial steam cleaning and restoration services throughout Toronto, Peel and Halton region. The company provided services to some of the largest commercial office space providers and several multi-residential rental asset firms as well as service calls for Leon’s Furniture, based from their Burlington location.
At 20, I began to invest in real estate for the future of my children's post secondary education and for retirement, purchasing older homes in Hamilton and converting them into duplexes and triplexes. I taught myself the ins and outs of total restoration as I engaged in rebuilding those properties. In 1992, having discovered that my true passion lay in the real estate, I divested from CanClean and became a licensed realtor who specialized in multi- residential and mixed-use commercial holdings. My business ranged widely, from single family flips to rebuilding older / historical multi-unit residential buildings of scale. Clients were able to take advantage of my background in reconstruction, as I offered project management services that included multiple million dollar restorations of many properties of distinction in Hamilton and Burlington. Over the span of 36 years as a multi-res / mixed use specialist, I was involved in the sale, acquisition, property management and full restorations of commercial and residential real estate worth hundreds of millions of dollars.
I retired from organized real estate to open Frank Taylor Consulting Ltd in August 2020.
Of course, my most rewarding job has been as a full-time father to three amazing adult children - Ryan, Sierra, and Mathison. I reside in downtown Toronto.

Gary’s Bio
Gary Hibbert is a full-time Real Estate Investor, licensed and award-winning Real Estate Agent, Author, and Educator. In 2008, he made a decision that would be life-changing by purchasing his first investment property. Through hard work and dedication, Gary left the corporate world to become a full-time entrepreneur in 2014. Today, not only does he have a remarkable Real Estate Investing Portfolio and successful businesses, Gary continually inspires the same change that transformed his life, into others.
In the beginning, Gary lived pay cheque to pay cheque as many others do. He had been accustomed to the reality that at the end of the month, there was more month than money. Realizing that there must be another way to make ends meet, he became determined to educate himself and make a change. However, at that point, he hadn’t yet realized that by changing his own life, it would enable him to help 100’s of future investors to their path to finding financial freedom. In 2010, Gary launched Smart Home Choice, a company dedicated to educating new and experienced investors through a focus on SMART goals in order to allow them to make informed decisions in their investing strategies. Currently, Smart Home Choice is one of Durham Region’s largest groups of Real Estate Investors and although the company is continually growing, it offers networking, mentoring, and self-improvement opportunities to its members.
In addition to Smart Home Choice, Gary is the owner of a private investment company called Deep Pockets and most recently has joined in a partnership of ownership of a real estate brokerage; Our Neighbourhood Realty. Gary attributes his success to his focus on improving his mindset, rather than improving his skillset and most importantly discovering his “why”. He is also dedicated to helping others realize their “why”, because that is the realization that led Gary to where he is today.
“Being able to design a lifestyle of your choice is not an easy feat, however it’s attainable as long as you have passion and know what your ‘why’ is”. - Gary Hibbert

#114: Garden Suites: The Future of RE Investing w/ Ronald De Coteau
On this week’s show Gary chats with Ronald De Coteau, founder and President of Property Pathways Inc. They dug deep into Garden Suites, a new-ish way of having tenants or family live close, but independently. It is the future real estate. With the pandemic, many people are looking at maximizing their real estate investments, and getting the best use.
WHAT YOU’LL LEARN:
Ronald’s Bio
Ronald is the founder and president of Property Pathways and delivers on his promise to pioneer an enriched design and construction experience for real estate investors.
He started investing in real estate in 2016 and was surprisingly challenged to find a design or contractor that could explain the legal process of secondary suite renovations. He set out to become the subject matter expert and a valuable resource to real estate investors throughout Ontario.
By leveraging his education and experience gained in the commercial construction sector, he created a hybrid service specific to real estate investors, who focus on the creation of long term wealth by buying and holding or BRRR real estate.
He works with real estate investors and their realtors to identify Suite-Able properties and has the battle scars and relationships in municipalities throughout Ontario, to prove it. Navigating the bylaw and building code requirements for a legal secondary suite bridges the gap and creates a pathway between the problems associated with converting properties and the profit that awaits the investors.
Our service is predicated on the belief that the building permitting process for real estate investors should be uniquely tailored and we achieve this through our four-phase design process that produces the detailed and easy to interpret permit drawings for a worry free construction process.

It wasn’t until his environment changed did he understand that his learnt behaviour was not permanent. This led him on a path of personal-development and a self-directed learning approach. Fast forward to present, with his new understanding of good debt vs bad debt, assets vs liabilities, Edward has carved a niche for himself as a self-proclaimed ‘late bloomer’. He is utilizing the powerful tools of real estate investing alongside his new skillset of trading Stock Options to engineer his lifestyle.
Scaling his real estate portfolio through personal and joint ventures partnerships, Edward uses a combination of BRRRR and buy and hold strategies to help others create generational wealth and improve ROT (return on time).
