I am only coughing now, not feeling like someone is pounding a spike through my head. 

I never heard the term turn key  in relation to Real estate investing untill about three days ago here on bigger pockets  I've actually been toying with the idea of doing turnkey for people seeing as how I started managing my own properties many years ago and have done so in New York State North Carolina and Florida  I'm still easily able to find deals that are Easley double-digit returns in upstate New York in Central Florida  I'm still a little bit in disbelief that I'm actually able to find deals this good  i'm still a little bit in disbelief that I'm actually able to find deals this good and so many others seem not to be something else innocent it just doesn't seem right to me for some reason I've never even gotten a mortgage on the house the one I lived in many years ago      I guess I've been very fortunate to be able to pay cash for everything Perhaps that  why my returns are so high I basically find the property fix it up and then sell it owner finance holding the mortgage or rent them for the incomePerhaps it's like the guy who lifts weights in his house and after 20 years he goes to the gym and he starts punching 500 pounds and everybody around them is in the shop in disbelief they ask him how he did it and he says well I just never thought that I couldn't do it

Now that I have the REI mindset, I often think about how we can help these great Americans offload unwanted homes through creative approaches. 

When a surgeon talks about operating on a 600-pound man, he isn't body-shaming the obese person; he's sharing his experience to help others. 

I am military 24 years transferred from San Diego, California to Honolulu, Hawaii with all my household goods of 14,000 pounds.  

Too much importance placed on that ole 'college degree'.....pounded into people's heads since birth, parental pressure, peer pressure, societal pressure.....Imagine in some cases that the student used that money to start a business....not only paying down the debt but making money at the same time.

It will take a lot of pounding the pavement, but I'm optimistic it will payoff.

I mean it is heavy. 1 to 3 pounds per sq foot so you have to figure that into your live load calcs. 

This is ridiculous - I have the county of Erie and the city of Buffalo inspectors pounding down my door for violations on 2 different properties at once.

I just have my 230 pound handyman step on every inch of the seams with his feet.
