Why This Provider?
- This has been a turnkey provider for several years. Their offices are located in the heart of the Midwest, Northern Indiana, not far from the Chicagoland area. This location allows them to reap the benefits of a large working-class population when it comes to placing qualified tenants in their properties. This large rental demand also enables you to see higher rents than other parts of the state, often achieving a rent-to-value ratio of 1:1 or higher as an investor.
- They focus on single-family homes in middle-class “B” and “C” neighborhoods. Houses typically range from 1,000-2,000 square feet and consist of 2-4 bedrooms and 1-2.5 baths. Each home is fully rehabbed and typically includes new flooring, interior paint, and updated kitchen and baths as needed. Any mechanicals showing potential to expire in 3 years are replaced. The overall quality of rehabs can be described as between retail level and rental quality. Once rehab is complete, they market the property for a tenant and typically tenant placement happens very quickly due to the area’s high rental demand. The property is offered to investors and they provide management services.
