That\u2019s bad news, especially for somebody with property in an overheated market,\u201d Smith wrote.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">A viable solution that can shield one from a potential crash is the \u201csell and rent\u201d tactic.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">\u201cAdmittedly, this isn\u2019t such an easy solution, but it could put hundreds of thousands of dollars in your pocket,\u201d Smith said. \u201cBecause owning property is such a popular investment, landlords are forced to accept anemic returns from cash flow. This has made renting more affordable than ever. It\u2019s the natural result of today\u2019s market.\u201d<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">\u201cThere are thousands of homeowners in Toronto sitting on at least $1 million in home equity. If that cash is properly invested in a portfolio of dividend stocks instead of sitting idle, it could spin off between $30,000 and $40,000 per year in income, easily enough to cover rent in a smaller place,\u201d the analyst explained.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">A more radical version of this tactic is to look and settle outside the red-hot markets altogether.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">\u201cYes, I know it\u2019s hard to leave a place that\u2019s grown to become home. But Toronto homeowners who move just a few hours away can find affordable housing in communities that still offer many of the amenities of home, and they can lock in impressive gains in the process,\u201d Smith said.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">\u201cI argue that it\u2019s prudent for investors to lighten their exposure to real estate. At this point in the cycle, it\u2019s just smart,\u201d he concluded.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.canadianrealestatemagazine.ca\/news\/sell-and-rent-a-viable-shield-against-a-potential-bubble-210886.aspx\" target=\"_blank\">\u201cSell &amp;
