438: Why Not Do Turnkey Real Estate By Yourself?

Why can’t you do it all yourself? That is, identify, acquire, manage a rehab, place a qualified tenant, and manage a rental property long-term.

We talk with the Founder and Investment Coordinator of who may be the oldest turnkey provider in America today, Mid South Home Buyers.

They make ugly houses pretty.

They only acquire houses that the Founder would be proud to own himself.

Mid South Home Buyers’ Terry Kerr and Liz Brody have repeat GRE buyers for their 2nd, 5th, and 9th investment houses in Memphis and Little Rock.

They’re passionate about how they’re not snatching away homes from prospective first-time home buyers.

They transform and improve neighborhoods.

4 years is the average tenant duration here.

MSHB’s rehabs are extensive: new roof, new HVAC, updated electrical and plumbing, all-new flooring and new cabinetry.

With national supply chain issues and inflation, they’ve doubled their inventory of supplies.

Memphis International Airport is an astounding distribution hub for the types of jobs that make great long-term tenants. It’s often the highest volume cargo airport in the world. 

They also offer new-build properties in Little Rock.  

What about prices and rents?

Memphis Rehab SFRs: Rent $780-$1,400 | Price $95K-$160K

Memphis Rehab Duplexes: Price $180K-$220K

Little Rock Rehab SFRs: Rent $850-$1,500 | Price $110K-$170K

Little Rock New SFRs: Rent $1,300-$1,400 | Price $190K

80% of their buyers finance. 20% pay all-cash.

They’re so proud of what they do that they offer monthly bus tours.
