Turnkey Basements
Hi All,
I've been looking at turnkey properties for several months now. The strategy simply works best for my situation. Overall I am finding properties that will work for me however, it seems all of the basements that I see from turnkeys do not look pretty. I notice hot water heaters up on bricks, which means the basement leaks. I also see very ugly walls, ceilings, etc. It makes me concerned that there will be major issues. For those who have bought turnkeys how big a factor was this for you? Have you had any basement issues? The picture shows what I'm looking for, but so far I have found much worse... I'm looking for 3 properties that are quality. That's it. I want quality not quantity!
