Background checks revealing failure-to-pays or past evictions have become more common, and you're not alone in seeing this trend in Baltimore County.One major reason for the deterioration in tenant quality could be the backlog in processing housing assistance applications and increased financial strain caused by COVID-19.

Mid South Turnkey Homes. Should I invest with this Memphis turnkey?
2 October 2024 | 31 replies
Hi Nida,I'm a bit late to the party but better late than never I guess lolIn the search bar here on Bigger Pockets or even a Google research will reveal a lot of info about certain companies.I'd always like to joke around and say that "Google is your best friend" when looking to work with someone new lolI'd like to second Jason's comment who has been around the turnkey game for a long time and has probably conducted due diligence on many if not all turnkey providers over the years.Not many have stood the test of time and I'm proud to say that we have.Not intending to plug my company as we have many battle scars that started from day 1.But still here and still battling away 🤓Why we survived and thrived unlike many others was keeping our operation small and boutique and only doing deals on our terms.Low volume sales and thorough investor pre-qualification (As not everyone that has a pulse is necessarily a good fit for what we can provide).Some investors did better than others but one thing I can happily say is that we always did our best for all.I believe a very important component to any "true" turnkey company is that the penny ultimately drops must drop with them.Meaning, if you invest and things don't go the way as planned it is entirely up to them to rectify.No finger pointing or passing on the monkey to someone else (Like a realtor, contractor or PM).A true turnkey company stands behind it's properties, rehabs and in-house property management.Key phrase here is "in-house property management".Everything must be under the same roof and the provider must take all responsibility for the outcome of that investment.Wishing you much success

I learned to try and hide the Subject To in a trust, to try and buy Subject To Insurance in case the loan gets called, to not get title insurance because it's just another expense, and it might reveal something I don't want you to know,and that the economy never takes a bad turn,and that I don't need reserves,and I'm not told what happens if I miss a payment or what to do about it,or that I could get sued and investigated,and I have no idea what to do if the loan gets called with the Due on Sale Clause, I also learned, that I can make tons of money having other people spend a lot of money to join a "community" where they get to watch videos of me and discuss Subject To with other students who are equally ill-informed, but they never get personalized training and never buy a property.I'm all set to be in the SubTo community and be happy with equally happy people.It's all there, on youtube, video in color, with great enthusiasm.So, in direct contrast to that, we teach all of that (well not overleveraging, or not using title or the other bad practices) "one on one", real time, personal, live, no videos, and you actually buy properties.
