Is there a potential for improvements allowing the future owner to raise rents???

It seems that turnkey sellers are sprouting like mushrooms, not unexpected giving all the distressed inventory being snapped up.Current practice by the largest turnkey sellers strikes me as questionable.

I think this is a common practice for every investor.

Basic steps to improving overall cash flow fall into 2 categories: Either increase income or decrease expenses.

I have known many investors who have tried to offer every type of service possible to entice tenants, but it does not necessarily improve performance of a tenant on a property.

I also am aware that this may require some improvements, which eventually I would like to do anyway.

A slight improvement might be possible, no more than a few percent per year.

If you improve on those terms in some way (e.g., less down), you will take a hit in some other way.Be careful not to accept what seems like a big improvement but leaves you holding the bag in some other way.

I've been looking through the REO posts trying to improve my understanding of the REO process.

It is common practice to see broker fee charges to the buyer between $250-$400.
