Questionable source of funds
The source of funds used to buy or maintain Canadian properties could be an unreported source that was never taxed, either in Canada or another country. In certain circumstances, a large down payment on a home, or a property that is expensive to maintain, may indicate any of the following:
Unreported income, if the lifestyle of the buyer is not compatible with the income reported;
Tax evasion
Purchase of real estate by a low-income person hiding a wealthy buyer
