Does anyone have any experience working with Strategy Properties in Detroit or even heard of them? So far I haven’t been able to find any information on them in forums.

Wow @Bo Kim thanks for the heads up.  It didn't even occur to me people would be sneaky and not disclose their connections.

Thanks @Bo Kim I know that at this point buying TK is the choice for me and I will definitely be getting in touch with you once I have specific questions. 

@Steve Kontos I definitely want to get involved in attending local REI meetings. I've only been able to find 1 out of state REI group through Meet Up. Are there any other groups you can recommend? In the BP events section I saw there is a Suffolk county rei meet up, and although it doesn't appear to be OOS specific, I've signed up to attend because I've got to start somewhere.

@Caleb Heimsoth While I agree that I could get better returns if I "cut out the middle man" when buying a property, but at this point in my life, I don't feel comfortable going at it on my own. I'm going into this knowing full well that I'm going to be paying some type of fee (however indirectly), because no one works for free. Hopefully in the future I'll feel comfortable and confident in purchasing a property and using the BRRRR strategy, but again at this point in my life buying a TK property is best for me.

@Marco Santarelli Thank you for the welcome! I've only been aware of BP for a couple of months and I've been trying to absorb as much information as possible.  Your podcasts are so informative and I listen to them to/from work.  Thank you for your concise descriptions of each company, I've heard enough of Morris to stay away and I'm not familiar with Roofstock, but I feel I need counseling for my first foray into real estate investing, so I mostly likely will not be looking further into this company until I'm more experienced. 

@Account Closed.  I never once got the impression that she was trying to sell or push her company through (even when reading the comments section).  By her phrasing, I always understood that the properties she invested were her own.  I never got the impression that she was trying to drum up business, which is why I was surprised to learn that she was the founder of TK marketer/promoter company, and what prompted me to ask if any one has worked with her.

@Jay Hinrichs  thank you so much for your input.   Also, I’ve read enough forums to know to stay away from Morris/Oceanpointe, lol

@Jeff Greenberg  thanks for your feed back. Ali does seem very knowledgeable.

@Caleb Heimsoth when you say marketers, is that similar to what Norada and Real wealth network do?

Hi everyone,

I’m curious to know if anyone has had first hand experience using Hipster Investments to buy TK properties?  I see the founder, Ali Boone, writes a lot of articles for BP, but I haven’t been able to find any information on her company in the forums.  I would appreciate any feedback.

thanks again @Micki M. for the Turn key review link. I’m trying to get as much information as possible before I “bite the bullet” and buy a rental property.

Hi @John Duclos and welcome to BP!  There’s an Upstate New York real estate forum you might want to look into if you want to connect with others in Syracuse.

thank you @Micki M. for sharing your story.  It was very helpful, especially since  I’m looking to buy my first property out of state through a turnkey company.
