Clarification on turnkey definition
Hey guys,
I've posted a few deal analysis reports on properties I've found on the MLS or from an agent OOS
I've gotten a lot of "don't do turnkey" which I'm sure is good advice generally.
My question is though, if I find and buy a property on the MLS after making lots of offers and getting what I consider to be a decent deal, and then I find a property manager to manage it... is that turnkey? I put it all together. Granted it's not much work but I guess i thought turnkey was a little different.
I thought turnkey was when someone rehabs a house, puts a tenant in it, then sells it to me.
Maybe it isn't much of a distinction I guess... because either way I'm paying retail for an out of state rental that someone else puts a tenant in.
Which is turnkey? Or are they both? And does it matter? Lol
