Dave Payerchin is the co-founding partner of Columbus Turnkey Houses. He's been in this business since 2005 and started out as a buy-and-hold investor. On today's show, he shares what you need to know before buying your first turnkey property. Don't get suckered into buying from someone who is just a middleman finding properties on the MLS, you're not going to get good cash returns! Key Takeaways: Dave shares a little bit about himself and his business. Dave and his business partner started this business as landlords first (buy and hold), so they've become very familiar with landlord and tenant laws. What is a turnkey property? Who are Dave's clients typically? Key point: If you're looking to buy a turnkey property, make sure you work with someone who has managed the rehab and tenant placement. Don't work with middleman parties who just find deals from the MLS! Dave explains the difference between A, B, and C class properties and why they matter for turnkey. What property class makes sense to pursue in a case like this? Never buy a property if it doesn't come with an inspection report. Get a third party, licensed, inspection report! Make sure you know who is managing your property. You want to keep your turnkey provider accountable.
