Thanks Ken! Great interview guys!

Couple questions:

1.) Are your buyers using financing or are these cash investors?
2.) So you purchase, rehab, lease, maybe season a bit, and then sell as a turn key? If that is the case, have you found that the double closing costs are effecting the properties that you can purchase? Do you eliminate title insurance for the second closing to save a few hundred bucks or is that something that you still provide for the investor for piece of mind?

Thanks Ken, this is great for me to start thinking about.

Finally, why did you decide to hire a PM co rather than starting a licensed PM co to service your turn key business?

Thanks again guys! Great stuff.
Mark
