In this raw and honest episode, Sarah Larbi sits down with Adam Kitchener, a seasoned investor and former property manager who built a massive career only to see it dismantled by the CRA.
Adam shares the devastating chain of events where an audit of a former client led to an investigation into his own finances, ultimately resulting in his bank calling all of his mortgages due.

This is a vital conversation for any investor about the importance of corporate structure, the reality of tax audits, and the mental grit required to rebuild from zero.

  • The Fourplex Sweet Spot: How Adam used residential mortgages to execute perfect BRRRs.
  • The Audit Domino Effect: How being a third party contractor for a troubled firm put Adam in the CRA crosshairs.
  • The Sole Proprietorship Trap: The specific structural mistake that allowed the CRA to target Adam’s personal assets and his family members.
  • Banking Default Realities: Why banks can call a mortgage even if you have never missed a payment.
  • Rebuilding with Grit: How Adam is using his construction expertise to launch Renovation Solutions and move forward.
