somebody need to research that aspect first before commiting to investment.

I was interested in the finance and legal aspects of operating a multi-state buy and flip equity fund.

. —- Again I’m not saying you have to do these things; it all depends what type of investor you are and what you are looking for however it is important to understand that if you shift the responsibility of either identifying the invest property or managing or any other aspect there WILL be a trade off — in this case the turnkey company has delivered on your goal of 8-9% ROI (projected... so TBC) and in return you have traded some of the other benefits of investing in RE for the convenience of not having to do much more than to look over the properties they have sent you and funding it from the comfort of your home, office, etc. ... again if this is the goal then you are on point but if the goal is to also partake in ALL of the other benefits of RE then you should understand that and not be surprised that it’s not a ‘stellar’ investment that checks all the boxes.

In my almost 20 years of doing Subject 2's and working with other investors in almost every State in the US, in the very few instances the Due on Sale is called it is because if the inexperience of the Investor in not knowing how the transaction is to be done, (not closing with a Title Company or Attorney, not doing the Insurance correctly)Most of all, (not communicating with the seller) Bank calls the Seller to offer them Life Insurance or some other service, and the seller tells them, "I don't own that house any longer, some guy took that house from me and put some renter in it"If you dig into any investor that tells you they had a property or a friend of their brother in laws Collage roommate that had the Due on Sale clause called, you will most likely find that the investor screwed up somewhere.This is why Education and knowledge is needed on any Real Estate transaction.I get calls almost everyday from someone who screwed up on a Subject 2 and is asking to be bailed out, many times they do not want to pay for help, and things just get worse.If you know how to make the Bank Comfortable with the transaction, all is good.Last year I had a couple of hedge fund managers call me asking how they can offer their under preforming loans to Investors to by Subject 2, wow what a great deal, I could call Pace and he would have buyers the same day for a 1,000 homes, but the legal aspect of this would hold the Hedge fund liable so we could not do a deal.

The things that you can do, include being properly capitalized, not be greedy, (in whichever way that may be defined in the county you are buying), know solicitation laws, know Dodd-Frank, the Consumer Protection Act, the S.A.F.E.

Just like all aspects of life :) If you come across anyone needing help I created this website of free resources to share.

Our needs got clearly defined last week when we tallied up the rehab cost on a midsized flip project, at $51k vs the $40k max we had budgeted.

Point is, (a) it's all but impossible for the investment to go to $0 and (b) you have direct, impactful CONTROL of outcome. 2nd: Back to the CONTROL aspect.

You have already seen the downside of a historically zero appreciation market (zero appreciation I define as historically below the rate of inflation).
