there was a lot of failures in this model with some of the poorer providers who are no longer in business. this led most TK operators to only offer product post rehab and many with tenant in place.. of course the holding costs of doing this must be backed into the end price.So if you can find a VERY good and reputable company that can do pre hab type deals you should be able to get a better buy as it relates to basis in the property.

Your General Contractor may have used Subs and you should cover your assets and make sure he has all those subs paid and you have lien waivers to back that up, or other documentation that similar from him, just because they are licensed doesn't mean they paid all their subs off or suppliers for parts and materials.

your best chances are garnishment if the tenant has a long term job at a reputable company or at a government entity.  

Your reputation is at stake and is everything being a wholesaler.
