You should sit down with your CPA and talk this out.

Now we just need to discuss with our CPA the benefits vs outright ownership.  

Looking forward to expanding my network.  

I sent one appraisal and later got a better appraisal and sent that to CPA.

Because the way a good turnkey company makes money isn't by tacking on a premium, it's by capitalizing on economies of scale in the rehab process, having the networks to get distressed properties at great prices, and having their own wholesaling operations that scour the market for those opportunities to cut down on commission costs.

Keep networking, keep growing.

I work as a Consultant for a CPA firm and my goal is to buy atleast 1 property in 2018 with a goal of 5 by 2020.

You can get referrals from your in-state network, or agents, or even here on BP.

If you are networking in your area I would look for a referral. 

Networking is extremely important!
