Out of Africa To House Hacking, Student Rentals & Now Mentoring with Hilary Tolong

<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Hilary is a long time client of ours who’s been on quite a journey, from growing up and immigrating from small town Kenya, Africa, coming to Canada on a student VISA as so many immigrants do, then really getting outside his comfort zone house hacking and started investing in real estate.</span></p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Imagine that. Coming from a rural community with one or two tea shops to buying houses and renting them to university students and regular rentals as well.  The first property being a student rental in Thorold, Ontario in 2015 for $351,000.</span></p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Hilary’s strategy for systematic, fully furnishing is a first that I’ve heard of so you’ll want to take note!</span></p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">He didn’t stop there as he started mentoring others in his community and even joint venturing with some of them to purchase properties in Northern Ontario.  With nickel pricings spiking, I hope that’s good news for our investor friends up north.</span></p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Hilary has a full time job that he enjoys and proof that one can invest successfully for a comfortable retirement.  He has no plans to go full time into real estate.</span></p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Please enjoy the show!</span></p> <h2><strong>To Connect with Hilary:</strong></h2> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Instagram: <a href= "https://www.instagram.com/mortgagecoachhilary/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">@mortgagecoachhilary</a></span></p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Email: </span> <span style= "font-weight: 400;">hilary@mymortgagecoaches.com</span></p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Linkedin: Ontario mortgage coaches </span></p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Website:</span> <a href= "https://mymortgagecoaches.com/" target="_blank" rel= "noopener"><span style="font-weight: 400;">Home - My Mortgages Coaches</span></a></p>
