Is this for a turn-key property or require rehab?

I've just started researching the real estate market in Denver today actually and my goal is to have the greater Denver / Boulder area mapped out as far as neighborhoods/rents/market conditions before I turn the key in the ignition to head out west.

If you do not have $50,000 liquid cash to invest, we do have ways to secure start up funding that can be discussed at a later time.You will first start by purchasing your first turn-key rental property from us for $50,000 cash.

If you do have to get aggressive with your cash for keys offers it's still worth it as your upside is very high.The way I see it is if you can get an extra $450/mo per unit that's $5400 in your first year paid back, you can recoup your costs very very quickly.

Not no rehab.. and you don't get fake tenants and fake leases.. and payments on empty properties etc etc.. that gives you an illusion that your investment is safe .in my almost 2 decades of funding turn key this is the biggest violation of the public trust I have seen.. many get away with it for 2 to 6 months then go broke but this has been going on for pert near 2 years.. and now all these nice folks are learning that they were sold a bill of goods in many cases. 

I assume you have only one source of heat for both up and down.

Of course you can also just do cash for keys if there was no deposit, but still.

We use property radar and when I was in the business I had my own custom data base that I tracked every NOD in my MSA... from every source.. again the only way to beat the competition was to be better than them.. 

And on the point about owning tools, I have a funny story in which I was interviewing a GC who said he doesn't actually own the tools and that he "out sources" them.

The key to the long horizon investor is that a retail purchase now will be less than a retail sale later (later being undefined but not influenced by artificial pressure).
