To clarify, I didn’t invest in a “fund,” but rather purchased a note for a specific fix-and-flip project.

I recently came across a website called RentToRetirement.com, which helps buyers purchase turnkey investment properties out of state.I was wondering if anyone here has used this site to buy a property.

Quote from @Michael Smythe: @Jerry NoguerasRecommend you first figure out the property Class you want to invest in, THEN figure out the corresponding location to invest in.Property Class will typically dictate the Class of tenant you get, which greatly IMPACTS rental income stability and property maintenance/damage by tenants.If you apply Class A assumptions to a Class B or C purchase, your expectations won’t be met and it may be a financial disaster.If you buy/renovate a property in Class D area to Class A standards, what quality of tenant will you get?

Can you easily find cash purchases close to the property and things like that?

Im a firm believer in purchasing rentals.

The last house I purchased was $227,500 and we put down $85K. 

I'm a fan of using the HELOC to help purchase new property.

@Ricky Rigsbee - I use the Michael Blank SDA and think it's extensive enough for modeling a purchase with or without syndication. 

The purchase cost is on average $350k - $450k.
