I’m a non-US citizen looking to invest and Turnkey seems to be the safest most logical option and I’m trying to find the safest company to go with.Would appreciate it if someone could please direct me to either that podcast or a list of the best Turnkey companies.

That was kind of my logic for needing a partner.

If I'm hearing you right, the logic is that a slightly lower COC is OK at purchase, but you want to have a realistic path to get that rate of return up (around/over 8%) in the short term.

No Sir, I use Realist, which is a Core Logic product

That is my investment logic.

There is also a smaller percentage of people who like renting a nice place and don't want to deal with the hassle of maintenance and repairs that come with home ownership.Of course the rent rate is (well, should be if you're doing it right) always more than what your mortgage/costs are--so by that logic, nobody should ever rent a property.

Thanks @Sam Craven Your advice makes sense and seems very logical!

I get that logic, but if I am in Arizona wanting to buy in Arizona wouldn't that mean I was sending only to people out of state making a "kitchen table" meeting geographically undesirable?

If you knew that prices were going down more, is it still logical to buy and hold?

I'm still working on him though to see the logic my way (:
