Wow as an apprentice here in Bigger Pockets I'm so honored to have access to such a great information with a group of people that posses vast knowledge on many subjects related to RS and are willing to share it , so for that a BIG THANKS  to you all as a newbie to RS this site is the greatest thing I could come around.As for this tread I was looking for information specific to Turnkey since we had been looking for invest in RS in our area (Texas, Austin, Cedar Park, Leander) and its had been so disappointed since we started 2 years ago the last year being the worst we either get out bid from outside of state buyers wit tons of cash or get caught in a biding war so we have to quick looking and we felt like we were no able to  achieve our goals in this type of market so we star looking in other direction we said to ourselves it has to be another way that we can conquer this quest to RS and that is when I found out about the term Turnkey properties and a window of new possibilities star to open for us we want it someone to provide a service where we only have to invest the money and they will do the leg work for us mi husband is a Teacher and I a home stay mom we don't have the time or expertise or big resources to do what it takes to find a house for flip or hold and reselling or rent out and manage ourselves we just don't have the time or the willingness we don't want the stress that will carrie so for us make sense to work with a Turnkey Company we are looking for the best one that will work for us and hopefully with all the information we are collecting trough Bigger Pockets we can find our match.Again thanks to all .Gioconda Sanders

As a newbie, it may be a little difficult for me tor raise enough cash to purchase a large multi-family off the bat.

Too many times I have seen the most confounding electrical issues end up being due to some handy person's "repair", crossing the neutral over on a switched line when connecting to K&T, or worse.

We went with cellulose with air sealing and a drop-down ladder hatch insulated cover bringing it to R-49.

@Erik Hansen  Gorilla will be more expensive than RS that's for sure.here are a few to calleast sideiron bridgeWatsachrain citySilverado ( my old company)vestusOne of these will probably do it for you with the same 2 and 12 or a little more.. once you have that under your belt then go to RS..

I use Real tors, I ask at garage sales if the house is for sale, I talk to complete strangers if they know of any homes for sale that arent listed, I have sent a letter or two after someone has died, Craigs list and so on.Do you have any other suggestions?

As-is, where-is, how-is, caveat imp tor?

Don't forget to have your insulation up to R-38.My Question to you:  Would you buy an SFH investment property in Maumee?
