Turnkey Investor from San Diego

Eugene Lee

Hi BP!

I became interested in real estate investing about six months ago and since then have begun work at a full-time position. The thing that really lit a fire in me to become financially independent though was being disowned by the CEO.

In any case, I'm here to  document my first deal. Because I am based in San Diego and working a full-time position, I plan to pursue a class A property single-family residential from a turnkey provider that can cash flow at least $150 a month. I have reached out to a few and hope to keep you all updated as my journey of building a real estate portfolio progresses! This is so exciting!

Please feel free to reach out with any questions you may have. And here's to giving back to the community that has given so much to me.

Hello Eugene,

Good luck on your investment! My biggest suggestion when investing in turnkey is to make sure you do your research on the provider! Some of these turnkey companies mainly act as "middle men" by simply being an agent. They just farm the MLS looking for homes they think are turnkey. A true turnkey provider will have owned the home and did the renovations on their own. This way you can hold them to their word and their work.

I would also suggest you check out this blog: How to Find the Right Turnkey Real Estate Investment Company for You

That should help you out.

Good luck! Send me a message with any questions.
