Hey mate,Sorry to hear about your troubles but it's not too uncommon.I've been in the turnkey biz for 10+ years now and have often been called the "bad guy" as we only sell to investors looking to purchase with cash.Many believe that because we only accept cash buyers, that we inflate the properties price which definitely isn't accurate.Quite on the contrary when looking back I feel that we under sold them lolWe can justify every one of our property prices with a CMA independent of our in-house sales.Whoever believes that financing a turnkey property makes it safe is wrong.Most turnkey providers or affiliates push the financing model (Even in today's high interest environment) to make more sales.They have "in-house" lenders or community banks that they establish relationships with and promise large volumes in loans.This in return get's rewarded with various favors and many are easily able to manipulate appraisals.Having flipped over a thousand properties, I know how easily an appraisal can be manipulated so for anything reading, "NO", financing a turnkey property doesn't necessarily make you purchase it for fair market value.To answer your question:When S#%@ hit's the fan like it did for you with this deal, I personally would always look to cut my losses and move on smarter and more experienced.Granted, over the years I have witnessed many investors buy 1-2 properties from my company and expect miracles only to get disappointed.

I'm trying to decide between renting the basement as a long term rental (and figure out something with the yard and utilities), do a short term rental like Airbnb or Furnished finders and give upstairs a utility credit, or leave it up to the current tenants to sublet it on Airbnb or find another roommate (so I don't get calls about tenant disputes since they will have chosen them).

@Steven Wocknitz hard money lenders in Canada don't call themselves that.By far the best you will get are private individuals who are willing to lend.

Worst case scenario is if you don’t like it, turn it into a normal LTR and call it good.
