They are promising 3K to 5K profit per month with 30K investment.

I’ve known some where you sign for a day… that was before the settlementSo this is part of the turmoil.. why else would an agent work with a buyer without promise of compensation? 

In the meantime, I plan to cold call opportunities I picked out that look promising.

Hey mate,Sorry to hear about your troubles but it's not too uncommon.I've been in the turnkey biz for 10+ years now and have often been called the "bad guy" as we only sell to investors looking to purchase with cash.Many believe that because we only accept cash buyers, that we inflate the properties price which definitely isn't accurate.Quite on the contrary when looking back I feel that we under sold them lolWe can justify every one of our property prices with a CMA independent of our in-house sales.Whoever believes that financing a turnkey property makes it safe is wrong.Most turnkey providers or affiliates push the financing model (Even in today's high interest environment) to make more sales.They have "in-house" lenders or community banks that they establish relationships with and promise large volumes in loans.This in return get's rewarded with various favors and many are easily able to manipulate appraisals.Having flipped over a thousand properties, I know how easily an appraisal can be manipulated so for anything reading, "NO", financing a turnkey property doesn't necessarily make you purchase it for fair market value.To answer your question:When S#%@ hit's the fan like it did for you with this deal, I personally would always look to cut my losses and move on smarter and more experienced.Granted, over the years I have witnessed many investors buy 1-2 properties from my company and expect miracles only to get disappointed. 

What are you promised in terms of rent there? 

Unlike Yelp, where reviews on there are many times fake, removed for paying clients, etc.Looking for: Longevity (years in BUSINESS), warranty, and fair on pricing.

There are tons of developments around my property including the Oracle campus, so the future looks quite promising. 

Your insights on leveraging equity to speed up the journey to financial independence totally make sense.I'm also focusing on the Texas, Washington market, drawn in by the tax benefits and promising opportunities.

Hey Divya, Columbus' thriving market and affordability make it a promising location for your cash-flow focused portfolio.

I also require no agreement to be signed promising me back end listings.
