Alex founded A-Rod Corp in 1995, purchasing a duplex apartment on the theory that investing his MLB earnings wisely would protect him from the kinds of financial struggles that afflict too many professional athletes.

In 2020, Alex joined CGI Merchant Group’s hotel investment fund to acquire and develop properties across North America and the Caribbean.

Melanie and Dave Dupuis, well known as Investor Mel & Dave, are innovative real estate investors, best-selling authors and award-winning mentors who have SOLELY acquired over 240 apartments in just a few short years in Canada, the US, Mexico, and Costa Rica. Their strategy gives them the ability to purchase properties… without using any of their own money or relying on joint ventures. This also allows them to own 100% of the property – which means they keep 100% of the equity, cash flow, and appreciation.
With over 23 years of combined experience in real estate investing, Investor Mel & Dave are founders of the Action Family Mentorship Program and are dedicated to helping individuals create their own time, location, and financial freedoms. They do this by helping them build their real estate portfolio without using their own funds while solely keeping ownership. To date, they’ve helped over 1300 students in Canada and the United States.
Starting out, Mel was working full-time at her local college, and Dave was a full-time firefighter. After discovering the “Creative Financing” strategies they now use, they were able to purchase 12 properties in 12 months (56 units) in 2017 and both quit their jobs in their 30s. Following a horrific life-changing highway crash in 2018, they wrote two best-selling books and are living proof that if you don’t let anything stop you, success can be yours.

One of the reasons we moved the conference downtown Toronto for 2023 is the unbeatable location. It’s all about unique experiences and building better connections.
If you’re not sure which ticket level is best for you, I’ve broken down the key points:
We’ve totally reimagined the VIP experience. Sure, 2022 was fun but we’re taking VIP to an entirely different stratosphere in 2023.
I’ve rented out the CN Tower for a special VIP-ONLY event on Saturday night… and that’s just the start of the unique experiences we have in store for you.
If you want to walk away after the conference and say, “Wow, that was AMAZING!” then VIP is for you. Not only do you get exclusive access to meet and greets with our two HUGE speakers, you also get a special VIP-only networking party on Saturday night in an incredible setting, a VIP-only networking dinner, and VIP-only entry to Noir upstairs at Rebel Nightclub for the official after party. There’s all that, plus a whole lot more.
If you’re looking to network but aren’t quite ready for the red-carpet treatment, the Platinum level is a solid choice. It all revolves around networking! Not only do you get access to the Platinum-only networking party on Saturday night, you also get entry to the insane after party at Rebel Nightclub. Just wait until you walk into the club… it’s going to blow your mind!
With the Elite level, you are in control of your experience. Whether you want to unleash with everyone at the after party, attend the special Friday quick start workshop for beginners, or just attend the regular sessions, the choice is yours. If you’re a multifamily beginner, expert, or somewhere in between, there is something for you at The Multifamily Conference.
