The companies you mention have been around for a while and have stood the test of time.They have stood the test of time in a niche called "turnkey real estate" that has always carried a stigma.So I think that speaks volumes of their quality 👍Nobody is perfect and those that work hard, will eventually make a mistake.As long as the mistake is an "honest mistake".And being a turnkey provider myself for 10+ years now I can sure say that some investors can be a true pain in the A$$ and it feels like they look for drama/issues intentionally instead of smooth sailing lolWith that said, I suggest doing your online research and reaching out to the one that tickles your fancy the most.And then go from there.Wishing you much success.
