This is why my plan is to achieve the level of financial independence whereby I can keep my 105 year old beautiful money-pit of a home.So to answer the OP, my plan is to stay right where I am, but at the same time, I'm sure my wife and I will be traveling 6 months out of the year...vacationing, visiting relatives, who knows.... maybe even visit some of properties of the syndicated deals we've invested in over the years. 

The idea with turnkey is that the buildings come with a certain level of well-vetted tenants, well-vetted management in place ready to take you on as a client, necessary repairs done to keep said tenants happy and paying market rents, etc.
