I wouldn't recommend this one for novice Flippers.

Also, as a novice how can I become aware of any "defects"?

pros & consPro-is if he sells it to you he doesn't have to pay anyone a commission.Con-you may be a novice and open to being taken advantage of.An experienced buyer its a no brainer buy directly from the owner.

I wouldn't recommend it to the novice investor.

It seems like a much more risky way of going about it.I'm a complete novice, so I'm not pretending to know the real deal, just asking.

This kit also made a novice look like an experienced landlord.Another advantage of the front yard sign is that you attrach persons familiar with the area.Anyway, good luck.

This is a "rule" for novices that states that ALL expenses over time will be about 50%. 

Cap rate I am not against Turnkey concept it is just that I see a lot that use real estate concepts/terms in an incorrect manner to entice novice investors.On your list you have cap rate. 

@Aryelle CollinsIt's inspiring seeing people take action and finding new and creative ways to get to their goals through things like partnerships and mutually beneficial relationships.Keep up the good work and keep us posted on your success.Much love,-Ambitious Novice
