    I don't think that model is sustainable. maybe ok in start up phase but with scale comes costs. Something has to eventually give.

    A great broker is usually my recommended first step to buying. However NONE do miracles. I suspect you are looking for a outcome none can really offer v's others.

    There are property savvy brokers and the rest.

    So how do I get started? Which profession(s) are best to seek advice on structuring, and maximise borrowing ability. Forget about the Vendor financing part...

    Loan structuring and borrowing ability - mortgage broker.
    Asset structuring - lawyer/accountant.

    I generally tell people that you should start with a great broker. They can identify how much you can borrow and issues regarding servicing.

    See a broker first
    Then you need a lawyer for advice on ownership structure - it involves more than tax

    You will find the mpa 100 and the like inst all inclusive.

    Mamy qualifying brokers don't participate in the rankings for various reasons.
