Devils Advocate-Turnkey Property Investment

Turnkey real estate investment will always be downgraded by some and praised by others. I believe everyone would benefit from a calculated discussion/argument for or against this method. 

I will put out a few positives and negatives and I am sure I am not the only one who would love to see this list grow..

Positives:

-Allows the investor with limited time but extra capital to participate in the benefits of real estate investment.

-Makes property investment accessible for those living in areas that have limited opportunity within their local market.

-Can provide a valuable learning process with limited risk.

Negatives:

-Paying a premium for real estate in lower class  areas?

-Exposes investors to potential properties that have put "lip stick on the pig"

-Getting stuck into "guru" and get rich quick schemes?

Lets grow this list and argue validity for the benefit of us all!
