How to Get Rich from Real Estate: Buy, Rehab, Rent, Refinance | In the Money with Amber Kanwar

Real estate is one of the most talked-about alternative investments — but what does it actually look like in practice?

In the second instalment of our special series on alternative investing, host Paige Ellis sits down with Lindsey Deluce, CTV Your Morning host and an active real estate investor building long-term wealth outside the stock market. Lindsey opens up about her real-world investing journey, from early renovations in Toronto to scaling a growing portfolio of multi-unit properties across Ontario.

Lindsey breaks down the BRRRR strategy — buy, rehab, rent, refinance, repeat — and explains how she uses renovations, tenant turnover, and creative financing to unlock equity and grow her portfolio. She shares how her approach evolved after the pandemic, why she moved beyond Toronto, and how she evaluates cash flow and risk in today’s market.

This conversation goes beyond theory. Lindsey gets candid about hearing “no” from banks, navigating appraisals, working with alternative lenders, and why building the right team — from contractors to mortgage brokers — is critical to success. She also shares her ambitious “50 by 50” goal and how she’s using real estate to create generational wealth.

If you’re curious how real estate fits into the broader world of alternative investing — and what it really takes to make the numbers work — this episode offers a practical, behind-the-scenes look from someone doing it in real time.
