Why Using a Direct Turnkey Provider is Really the Only Way to Go

If you’ve opted for a turnkey property as your chosen investment strategy, allow me to congratulate you on making a wise decision. Turnkey properties are an ideal choice for both new and seasoned investors, and they come with a number of benefits that you won’t find using other investment strategies.

But not every turnkey company is created equally. One of the main differences you’ll find between them is in regards to ownership of the properties. Some turnkey companies (like USREEB) own the properties they’re selling to investors, while others don’t, and are are simply acting as middlemen between property owner and investor.

And let’s be honest here….who likes dealing with a middleman? Almost no one, and for good reason. When there’s another person or company involved, things inevitably become more complicated, and it’s almost always the investor who suffers.

So, in 99.99999% of cases, it’s better to use a direct turnkey provider who already owns the properties they’re peddling to investors, and there are 3 main reasons why.

Huge Savings

The most important benefit that comes with using a direct provider is the massive savings you’ll see. What? Did you really think that middleman company was going to connect you with investment properties for free? No way! They need to take their cut, too, and it’s going to be at your expense. When you eliminate that third party, though, you’re also getting rid of that cost, which will translate into big savings on your purchase.

Faster Process

Cutting out the middleman also means a much more streamlined process for you. You’re working directly with the property owner - who also happens to be a turnkey provider - so there’s no back and forth between you and the seller via a third party. You communicate directly with the property owner, and every part of the transaction stays between the two of you. This results in a faster, smoother process that will put you on the path to positive cash flow much sooner.

Better Service

Lastly, 9 times out of 10 you’re going to get better service with a direct provider. At USREEB, we actually care about our investors, and our aim is to connect them with the properties that are best suited for their needs and investment goals. It’s not about unloading properties as quickly as we can, or about making money at someone else’s expense. We want what’s best for our investor clients, and one of the ways we do that is by providing service that goes above and beyond. Your average middleman turnkey company just isn’t going to do this. They are simply a conduit in the transaction, while direct providers like us are interested in building relationships and bettering lives.

When you’re shopping around for a turnkey provider, it’s always best to go with one who owns their own properties and can provide direct service. You’ll save time, money, and tons of stress, and best of all, you’ll wind up with a great, cash-flowing property that is the perfect fit for you.
