That is just one example where that 15% expenses and cap ex does not hold water (sorry for the pun with Houston right now).

The idea of the BRRRR strategy is control and the DIY aspect of investing, but when you put a middleman (turnkey provider) in the middle of all of these (no pun intended), things could get a little complicated.
