Some were wholesalers that we've been in contact with before they started using Investor Lift, some are outfits that we found through browsing the available properties on the platform.I've thought about joining as well as we'll wholesale deals that don't meet our investment criteria from time to time... as an agent though I lean towards buying personally, assigning directly to a client, or listing more frequently than wholesaling, so I'm just not doing enough wholesaling volume to justify the $479/mo price tag.

I am the pop of a mom and pop landlording outfit with multiple holdings in single-family-rental properties in this class in a similar city. 

I worked for one of the bigger turn key outfits( co owned) Charlotte is like most markets there are good and bad areas.

There are still some truly high quality TK outfits around -Spartan (of course), Memphis Invest, Decas etc - but unfortunately investors do need to take ownership of their due diligence to avoid these kind of scams that are all glossy marketing and no substance. 

In fact, that is the very reason you suggested the HML outfit you did last week -- they have a "senior note" tranch that seems very insulated from damage.

Or there is the public storage outfit that is only operating at 60% occupancy. 

In my one city I invest in there is a big property management outfit that has hundreds of rentals all around my stuff and they do not allow pets as a policy .

this wont work on pretty much all levels  too much cash ripped out up front  relying on refinances that may or may not come .. appreciation which is not a guarantee  plus other than Chris here show me any other TK type out fit that has been in business for 15 years.. that's a LOOOONG time in this industry.. 

I mean I have not seen one turnkey out fit set up in Denver or San Jose or LA.. and market investment properties to someone living in Ohio ?  

@Ron James maybe not an answer to the question you asked, but A few years back, I liked the idea that the turnkey outfits were pitching.
