Tim Tsai is a full-time investor currently living in Edmonton, AB. He began his real estate career as a Rich Dad/Legacy student in 2010 and has been the advanced trainer for Lease Options in Canada.

With years working in the corporate environment and experiences in running other traditional businesses, Tim knew there had to be “smarter” ways to generate income and create long-term wealth.

In the past few years of his real estate investing career, Tim has worked in various Canadian and US markets using a variety of strategies – income properties in single- and multi-family units, lease options (both residential and commercial), bridge financing, rehab, wholesale, infill development, and mobile home parks, etc.

In 2017, with the network he’s built, Tim also started investing in the UK.

Although the deal was still profitable, Austin learned from the mistakes he made in his first investment and decided to spend hundreds of hours and thousands of dollars building his real estate IQ with the help of some of the most respected Canadian real estate investors.

Fast forward and Austin has spoken in front of an audience of over 300 investors at one of the largest real estate conferences in Ontario and has founded the RISE Network which has grown to over 300 members and has attracted over 70+ attendees in the monthly events.
