Hi Daniel, 

   I was thinking about using Memphis/Dallas invest as a Turnkey provider. Do you know much about them and will it still be hard to get a turnkey property through them?

lol... thanks Bennet, 

     Ive contacted the technical department several times and they said it had to do with some devices BP is used on, primarily an Ipad.  They said they're trying to fix it.  My photo is right side up on a PC, but looks like Im living in Australia when using my Ipad...lol.

I didn't know it was monthly payments... I thought I heard it was 350-400 up front...  $29 a month sounds pretty good.  Thanks James

Hello BP,

I'm really grateful this community exists and thankful to the founders.  But, I'm unsure If I should purchase the Pro package yet since I'm not financially ready to purchase a house and I'm out of  construction work .  My question is would the Pro package help me become a better investor by practicing how to analyze deals this year? Are there other features with the Pro package aside from calculators that you find helpful? or should I wait until I'm ready to purchase a home to upgrade?  Any positive feedback would be appreciated. Thank You.

Hello BP community,

  I attended a Passive Income/Turnkey company seminar and I was impressed in the professionalism and attention to detail.  This company will walk me through the ownership process  and will cover the property management from A-Z.  I've decided I'm  going to purchase my first property through them.---    I work in construction and I would like to purchase and rehab properties to rent out.   I'm not confident in my construction abilities to rehab an entire house yet and have no investment experience.  I think this company would work  great for me now, but I would eventually like to  do it alone.   Ive met people who own nearly 10 Turnkey properties,  which works for them as they had no construction experience or desire to learn or move to another state.  My question is this.  Should I purchase 1 or 2 properties to learn about the process then branch out? It sounded simple, but I just finished a real estate class and it's a lot more complicated than I thought and that's just the realtor side of things.  Any thoughts on how I should organize this? or if there's a limit on Turnkeys I should purchase before going on my own. Thanks for reading, Josh

Hello BP Community,

   I listened to a podcast from a year ago and cant find it.   It dealt with a company that comes in and splits the electricity/water bill and then puts the monthly charge of a few bucks built into the tenants monthly utility bill. They I believe the company physically sets up their meters at the residence. Anyways,  The podcast had an investor using  this company for his multifamily unit properties and really liked it.  ----Im building a granny flat in the back of my friends duplex he owns.  I would like to relisten to the podcast and share it with him---.  Right now I ran the electricity from the front unit giving power to the back granny flat and I dont think that is going to set well with the front unit.    Any suggestions on how to split the bill would be appreciated,   Thank you,   Josh
