Hi Greg,Thanks for your comment.I'm glad that you asked lolThe beautiful thing about the pockets we sell in is that there is a mix of owner occupiers and tenants (Investor owned properties).I'd say that it's 50/50 owner occupied and investor owned.Our #1 "pick up" line that we tell investors is that "Our entire staff, including the Dingo himself live in the same area's that we sell in""So you''re tenants are our neighbors"If you ask me mate, that's pretty un-heard of for any turnkey providers to be living in the same areas they sell.Now, Toledo isn't Beverly Hills by any means.It's a blue collar working class town with blue collar working class residents.Decent people that are hard pressed for money but they do their best to pay the rent.Not too much turnover and only a hand full of scenario's over the last 5 years where a property was damaged more than just a basic turn.There are many exit strategies in my opinion.The biggest being that I predict that eventually all of our tenants will want to buy and own again (Just like many did prior to the GFC).Why?
