I'm definitely not a genius but have bought and sold investment properties and also we have many buy and hold properties.

I can’t comment on this turnkey company or Kansas City but I’ve bought several turnkey properties before.I would say it’s not a big deal for some of the minor issues you’ve listed.

I know hes bought in for at least the next 5 years.

It was rehabbed to turnkey condition last February when I bought it and there was a new renter in there before I purchased.

I bought a 97 year old duplex with one permit on file, for a deck... 

I actually just bought my first home last year in Montgomery County, Maryland (a condo with a low condo fee using an FHA loan, not a super great deal but very reasonable).

I negotiated her down to $230k cash but this took a few months so during that time, I already bought another house to flip and shifted funds around.

I have a couple of properties I bought last year, that I would not invest in if they were on the market today.

I bought my first home last year in December, mostly to get out of renting (it was a condo in Montgomery County, Maryland with a low condo fee, not a super great deal but very reasonable).

Hoping for some opinions/advice:  My husband and I bought our first investment property with the intent to flip it.
