I think folks that get disappointed with turn key are under the illusion that its like buying a mutual fund or something like that.when in fact what is done for you is simply this.1. a rehabber ( turn key outfit ) has sourced and rehabbed ( we hope) a rental property and sold it to you 2. they may have put a tenant in it 3. and they may own the management company ( wise move for most turn key as they keep better contact with their clients and over time this becomes nice profit center) Once you own it you have to be engaged and stay engaged as the owner if you don't your going to usually have disappointment.. and if you as the buyer think just because you bought turn key that you need to hardly do anything for the rest of the life of the investment well then your setting your expectations up for some disappointment.

Nothing and disappointment, then something and happiness.Let's just say October to December 2016 was a lot of a something that made me happy (& sometimes concerned as if they confused my project with someone elses') and a lot of nothing where I noticed absolutely no change and no work done.

It may help to have a real estate attorney look it over.This kind of business model is disappointing to hear about as it sours potential investors who may be interested in doing something like this with a legit business.

A little disappointed that the appraisal came in lower than expected (610k vs 700k) but we think that once it's fully stabilized, we will hit that 700 k at an 8 cap.
