A year ago my asset protection cost doubled over night.  

It can be for earnest money or double closes.

Personally not a fan of out of state BRRRR.I think it's a recipe for disaster and having been in the game for 10+ years, I've seen the disaster first hand as I bought hundreds of deals from disgruntled out of state investors who thought they can do it themselves.My property management company has doubled in 12 months also due to out of state investors getting caught with a poor property manager when trying to do it themselves from afar so they come to us for help 🤷‍♂️I'm seeing many investors buying D class crap on the MLS for too much and that needs work.They end up being into the property for 30% more than they would be that if they just bought turnkey.A true turnkey provider will find the cheapest/best deals through a variety of acquisition methods, renovate well and sell for fair market value (And manage in-house).If things go South, they are solely to blame and the penny drops with them.But with DIY, who is to blame?

NW typically does a high pressure fast escrow tactics... even have you bid against other investors... often double escrows... and sometimes even delayed possession.

I got a quote for $17k to $19k for a full updated, fully occupied building.I thought this seemed double what I should be paying.

Through that experience, we didn't get the full picture of their services outside of leasing, but we were able to get a general idea.

So that our net profits now are over DOUBLE our original proforma..
