Should I do double inspection for Turnkey rental

Sameer Kh

Posted

hello fellow BP fans,

I am about to close on my first Turnkey rental. The Turnkey / property management company I am working with is well known in my area and reputable

The company owner is doing his own home inspection using a third party real estate inspector now since he has finished the rehab. 

My question is should I order my own inspection or should I rely on his inspectors reports?

Thank you

Sameer

Get an inspection done by an independent inspector who you find on your own.  We use Angie's List and other sources for referrals.  We backed out on one turnkey deal that was supposedly ready, but our inspector found mold and dry rot and other problems.  It is a good layer of protection.
