I find it challenging to find a good personal valet. My current valet is inconsistent with the shine of my shoes. One day bling and the next, nothing.

I saw a monkey in Gibralter trained to shine shoes. Maybe start there? ;)

There once was an ape from Gibraltar

Whose strong, furry hands would not falter

When shining my shoes

He would tell me the news

Now he works for FOX.

In my experience, just because something is new doesn't make it better. Especially during the pandemic years, more new construction builders entered the market and quality decreased. As you mentioned I would recommend at least 2 private inspections done by the buyer and their agent. Pre-drywall and final.

On a new build that I helped an investor purchase to turn into a STR, one of the farmers accidentally hit a nail into a pipe causing the tiniest least. The leak would have been there for months if not years slowly causing major drywall damage. It was caught by the pre drywall inspection.

I usually stay away from homes built by farmers.

Leah, the key as with any property purchase is to do your due diligence. Get your own appraisal and your own inspection. Turnkey can be fine but also stories of investors visiting their properties and finding a gutted house with no tenants. Just approach and investigate like you would any other real estate purchase.
