I just talked with a Behr Rep and their new Dynasty line of exterior paint is expected to last 20 years, and that's in the desert..Personally after having been in the painting industry for over 40 years there is no paint that can be guaranteed to last 20 years. 

A huge chuck of money doesn't guarantee a good ROI, I wish it did, I would recommend the 3.5% house hacking, 1,2,3 or 4 units with 4 units being your max.

Meaning, you cannot guarantee that the intended recipient received or even opened your mailer. 

I can't guarantee city/county bureaucracy won't try to fight it though...

Yes turnkey means the GC handles everything from permit to CO and gives you a turn key guaranteed price that does not change unless you make changes.Also some GC have stock plans or do design in house which will save you on design fees.

The good (besides the guarantee), the bad, and the ugly? 

However, nothing can guarantee that they won't break in again.  

You are not allowed to provide personal guarantee on a loan with IRA-owned property so the only financing that would be allowed is non-recourse.

(I ask as you could probably generate $120-$150k/year in cash from a guaranteed bank CD.

@Derek Morrison,To buy a property in a 401k you need a non-recourse loan since as a "disqualified person" you are not allowed to provide a personal guarantee for the loan.
