Just wanted to throw a quick note out to the readers here on BP and those searching or asking questions about Turnkey companies.

I have met with dozens across the country over the last few years and many that are no longer in business.  There are some that I am a big fan of the owners and the business because they do things the right way and I believe that if they follow their paths and stay true to their actions, they will continue to grow and prosper.

I had the pleasure of spending some time with @Engelo Rumora in Oakland a couple of weeks ago at @J. Martin 's real estate summit, which was a fantastic event btw.  

I came away impressed with Engelo's passion and commitment to doing things the right way.  I found him sincere in his desire to truly deliver what his clients' expect.  Without a doubt, he is willing to work and work and work and absent any real secrets to success in this business, that is a huge differentiator.

We had a lot of time to talk about best practices, what we've learned after 13 years building Memphis Invest, how we manage almost 4,000 properties and the challenges he is going to face as his company grows.  I was very impressed that his true to desire was to build a great company. 

When I finally landed back in Memphis a few days later he had sent a thank you gift for taking the time to hang out and share.  A class move for sure.

So this is unsolicited and, although I have not been to Toledo yet to check out the operation in person, I will be heading there soon to check out the great things he is doing and put my eyes on his business.  From a purely personal standpoint, Engelo is a stand-up guy who I believe is going to keep building a high-quality Turnkey company.

For the readers, take that .02 for what it is worth when you are investigating Turn-key companies to work with.
