Hey mate,Sorry to hear about your troubles.I've been offering "true" turnkey properties for 10+ years now and have many scars to prove it.There has been and still is a huge stigma surrounding the industry and rightly so.The very best rated in the industry sometimes get blasted on the forum.Like with any business that has stood the test of time, we have had our fair share of successes and failures.We have done very well for many investors and could have performed better for others.Many times, we are to blame and other times it was the investors fault IMO.One thing I have always claimed is that we don't steal, cheat or lie and my team and myself work very hard and always make decisions with investors best interest at heart.Personally, I believe that folks that work hard and do their best shouldn't be crucified for an honest mistake when it happens.But, I guess others aren't as reasonable when it comes to such situations and I don't judge them for it.I take the punch on the chin and still continue doing my best.Over the years, I have made millions and lost millions but only blame myself when I loose.Not others.Also, I've always preached to start slow and only use cash which has cost my business 90% in sales volume.I just don't believe that investors should use leverage when first starting to build their portfolio.Reverse engineer and base all real estate, business and even life decisions from a risk analysis worst case scenario standpoint.If you believe that you can absorb a worst case scenario outcome, then pursue the opportunity.Build a strong foundation with cash owned properties and gain experience first."

For example, if someone slipped and fell in one property that had its own holding company, they couldn't go after your other properties if they are held in separate companies, The accounting administrative cost could be burdensome if you have many properties so it is another factor to consider if you want to create a lot of holding companies so sometimes it becomes a mitigating risk v. admin cost analysis. 

Make Assumptions: Consider possible reasons like a tired landlord, property in rough condition, or a bad location.Confirm Assumptions: Ask the seller and consult local experts (property managers and real estate agents).Update Assumptions: Incorporate the new information.Adjust Analysis: Integrate the updated information into your analysis.

I invest for my own account, and do deal analysis for my syndication business while my partner runs all other (administrative) functions.  

I have sold a bit over 50 million of the northside 2-4 units so seen lots of day 1 analysis vs long term, they tend to not look great on paper in year 1 but rents ramp up each year and they run under 3% vacancy here so actually bring high returns over the long run.

I'm happy to consider alternative perspectives, but prefer perspective backed by analysis (and preferably not by someone with an agenda to advance). 

@Joshua FurrowCollecting the rental data on properties from RentCast, Zillow, and BP will be important in your analysis. 

They have good reviews and seem like a great company, but it would be nice to have more than just the one rental analysis to help make our decision on not only how much to charge but who to use for a management company.

A very good source of local analysis is rereport.com.

A RE with good analysis skills can buy properties that have better to much better than average returns, than the global average.
