Joint Ventures in Real Estate: Tyler Soullier's Windsor Guide

In this episode of The Wisdom, Lifestyle, Money Show, host Scott Dillingham interviews Tyler Soullier, a top real estate investor and realtor with Manor Realty in Windsor-Essex, Ontario. Tyler shares his journey: quitting a family business post-MBA to become a realtor in Toronto, returning to Windsor in 2013 amid post-recession bargains (e.g., $48K duplex flip netting $30K profit), ramping up to 15 properties via BRRRR strategy in his first year, and winning Investor of the Year. He stresses property management to avoid tenant headaches (e.g., handing over all units after six for hands-off operations) and learning from conferences/networking.

The focus shifts to joint ventures (JVs): 50/50 partnerships where Tyler sources deals, analyzes (e.g., 5-10 year projections), manages renovations/property via his team, while partners provide capital/down payments—ideal for those lacking time/knowledge. Scott handles financing at LendCity, ensuring optimal rates/terms amid 2025's BoC cuts (2.25% as of November). In Windsor's resilient 2025 market (CMHC predicts dip with lower starts, but tightening resale in late 2025; July averages $592K, down 1.63% YoY per local reports, recovery eyed for 2026), JVs enable passive investing with minimal risk. They discuss using privates (7-8% rates as business costs), avoiding emotional bidding, and long-term holds for wealth-building.
