 Would love to learn more.

Thank you for the reply and insight! From my initial call with the company it sounds like I’d be buying the properties, putting in the renovations, and then have the option to  sell to someone who would want a turnkey or I could keep the property and his property manager can help to find tenets. From there they can help to to connect me to a hard money lender to refinance and buy another property.  The advantage I see is having someone with the connections to help me through this process, especially out of state since NJ doesn’t seem the best to invest in.  I just want to make sure I’m seeing this through the right lense.

I have capital (~$140) to invest, and I’d like to scale that as quickly and efficiently as possible to eventually pull away from my W2 job. Open to any other suggestions as well!

I have a well paying job, but it's very demanding of my time. My goal is to invest in real estate to eventually displace my W2 income to have more flexibility with my time and more time with my family. I live in southern NJ have about $140k to start off with. I'd like to invest close to home, but I understand taxes here will eat away at my cash flow. This has led me to looking into an out of state BRRR strategy to scale quickly. I found Antoine Martel that has a turnkey business investing in the Midwest. I've also seen some people caution against turnkey because you would be buying the property at market value with a tenant who's occupancy is uncertain. If I work on the back end with Antoine and buy these properties through his network, put in the capital to rehab, then have the option to sell or hold/rent, wouldn't this remove that concern? To me the advantage is having a network of people to work through out of state and a mentor so to speak with being a first time real estate investor. Would love some feedback and thoughts on this strategy or others that may be better considering my goals.
