Also at those same times, I would have said that going with a big brand turnkey marketer or in fact any turnkey marketer you just wouldn't be able to absorb the 5-10k extra bump in price that they add on top of their renovations.Long story short, I think you just gotta find your own broker, and you may have to go to more C-class type of areas these days.
