I went into the course assuming I was paying $10k for a streamlined acquisitions process but what i got was two days of narcissistic self-aggrandizing guru garbage, a “mind map” that looks like it was thrown together, 34 “strategies” that can be found for free on BiggerPockets sprinkled with juuuuuust enough guru gimmick word vomit and hand waving to impress the eager and inexperienced, several of which were repulsive and absolutely predatory..Instructing students who get their offers turned down by a seller to walk out of the appointment, get in their car and blast out the property out to cash buyers anyway..  

had a guest who somehow was able to "book" my place on airbnb and then get my check in email instructions for their one night stay. but the payment never cleared somehow and the booking was then stopped by airbnb but they already checked in.

I ended up purchasing a ready to go 8 person barrel sauna from a local manufacturer.

Thanks A lot has been written on BP about R2R and everything looks solid.I'm a big believer in sticking with 1 market until you build a large enough portfolio and diversification is justified.Like with many investments and not just turnkey, it's important to build a large portfolio.The time and associated risk isn't worth buying 1 or 2 properties if you expect a significant impact on your bottom line monthly cashflow.Most turnkey properties are sold at fair market value or slightly above.Nothing wrong with this as long as property management is solid and does their job with integrity.Buying turnkey you won't have built in equity so no growth can be manufactured and you will have to wait for the market to grow to see an equity gain.Thus, IMO it's important to have mindset where you endeavor to build a large enough portfolio so the monthly cashflow makes sense and the portfolio becomes safer.Much success
