But simplicity doesn’t always mean safety.Here’s the reality check: when that “one tenant” moves out, you become the one paying for everything.While occupied, tenants often cover utilities, yard care, and sometimes minor maintenance.

It's a shame but it's reality. 

Vacancy, property taxes, and insurance just kill the math.I’m starting to wonder, is this just today’s reality, or are there investors here who’ve found creative ways to make Atlanta-area house hacks work in 2025?

They are a large company that has buying power and a network of contractors realtors and others to do the work. the owner, Zach also here on BiggerPockets and has a stellar reputation for customer serviceFor cons - people will view some companies in a negative light because of this, but the reality is the individual who is thinking negatively is typically inexperienced and doesn't understand the businessbut....this is a reality as someone who has been in this space for almost 30 years.Contractors realtors, and others one day could be an A player and do great work.

Turnkeys USED to be fairly easy for flipping companies to offer at a price that cashflowed for investors.That was when prices were still recovering from the Great Real Estate Crash of 2008-2010.Now, prices in most areas of the country have set new record highs - and prices have increased faster than rents, making it much harder for a Turnkey Flipper to sell at a price an investor can cashflow.The only way it happens now is with Class C properties or new construction with builder-paid Temporary Mortgage Rate Buydowns.Most newbie investors are clueless about the realities of Class C Properties/Tenants, where the promoted returns are rarely actually met:(Several investors that bought new construction turnkey 3+ years ago have had their mortgage rates adjust upward, significantly increasing their payment, but rental rates have NOT kept pace - leading to negative cashflow:(So, PROCEED WITH CAUTION!

Reality check: even if rates fall a point or two, affordability barely moves.

The reality is that the perception of FHA loans can and sometimes does impact the acceptance of an offer by a seller.

With all the hype about gold soaring toward $4,000/oz, I wanted to take a moment to share some reality—grounded in facts, not headlines.Gold is shiny.
