Plus many of the marketing folks are just that marketing have no expertise per se really are only hired guns.. there are many here on BP.. but its a free world just like RE brokers make fee's these people do also..at the end of the day this Turn Key model is an animal all itself and is endemic to the Midwest ..

Right now what I'm looking for is buyers/mentors.I'm not trying to build a buyer's list per se, more specifically I'm hoping to find a few very active investors in my area (NW Tarrant Co) for whom I can try and find the right kind of deals. 

I can calculate an after repaired value based on the final/new rents - but i am wondering how likely it is for an investor to come along and purchase the investment property (now that it is a stable/safer investment choice).My goal is to generate cash for a subsequent investment, so im sure selling/10-31 exchanging may be best, but i dont know if its a good bet per se.

I started looking in slightly higher end suburbs of SE Michigan in 2014, looking almost exclusively for small condos in the $120k-$180k range.

We are not looking to jump into real estate as a means of investment per se, but are looking for a way to offset some of our rent expense.  

He's not an investor agent per se, but I've found him to be pretty good.
