Other points Basic value add deal to a multifamilyIt was actually hard to get the link, the email to sign up bounced every time I tried, I ended up using the website form.I was assuming I would get the "hard sell" considering Cardone's reputation, but it sold out 2 days after I got approved to view the deal so never contacted$100,00k minimumInteresting that I have not been contacted since either, I was expecting to be on the mailing list for everything he sells but I have gotten no spam at all so good for himHowever, the email that announced they were funded was sent over CC, not BCC so all the emails were in the open (about 200 from what I can tell).

Don't get me wrong, these come with their own challenges, such as the high minimum investment ($50-100K, although that's also about how much you'll need to buy a rental), and the difficulty in finding reputable sponsors.

Funny thing is that both Brad Doran and Alan Kirkham mentioned to me over the phone how they both knew that our CPA had a reputation for being disliked and having problems with multiple clients, but yet that CPA was still working with WealthAbility and was still being paired with clients!

G'Day Bob,Not many "true" turnkey companies around anymore and I've seen a trend where investors want to DIY out of state and country.Personally, I think this is an even bigger recipe for disaster than buying turnkey.bBut that's just my opinion.Back in the day you had many "turnkey" companies selling crappy properties in crappy areas for a lot more than market value.Then they pass you on to a 3rd party PM that nickel and dimes you to death.Granted, if you want to DIY I would always advise moving to the market that you want to invest in.Spending enough time with key people needed to make your venture a success.Yep, easier said than done 🤷‍♂️If you DIY from out of state, you will probably find an "investor friendly" agent that will flog you expensive property from the MLS, refer a "good" contractor and then you will most likely also get nickel and dimed by a referred "trustworthy" PM.IMO, you are safer finding a reputable turnkey provider in a market that you want to invest in and go from there.If $#%@ hit's the fan (Which it always does in real estate), at least you have everyone to blame under the same roof.A true turnkey provider will have everything an out of state investor would/want and need under the same roof.No finger pointing is allowed lolI'm bias as we offer turnkey so take my words with a grain of salt.Just happy to offer my 0.2 Aussie cents.Wishing you much success
