I have been listening to the BP podcasts religiously since March of this year on my hour commute to and from work, been lingering long enough on here and figured I'd finally write my first post.

If you don't have a lot of flexibility with your lifestyle and people there you can trust it's probably better to go another route. 

Turnkey investing is a LIFESTYLE, not just some word you throw around.

I have focused on one neighborhood of the city that I believe will have a steady rent and is fairly affordable and am direct mailing them religiously!

If for whatever reasons ( mostly religious I suppose), having a loan is not an option, there are other ways I have found out.

From the inside though it may seem to you that the amount of wealth that you have built will not support the kind of lifestyle that you want.You have 4 rental properties, and I am guessing that you don't think they don't provide you with nearly enough cash flow.

So many people in their 70's and 80's have to dramatically change their lifestyles because they can no longer drive.

Wholesaling is a lifestyle.

Buying a personal home is a lifestyle decision not a investment.

For anyone local who refers a tenant to me, I'll be offering a referral fee of $100 to them personally or $125 to the charity of their choice.What I wanted to do is talk to the neighbors around the unit, the owner of the local cafes (one of whom is also very involved in the large local Pagan group), maybe the head of the rotary club, and local religious congregation heads about it.
