Speculation is a natural part of the real estate world. We’re always looking for the next big thing and, at the same time, preparing ourselves for worst-case scenarios. In a post-Great Recession world, can you really blame us? That said, it’s important that, particularly in buy-and-hold real estate investment, we are prudent in our analysis and decision-making.

We’re back with another fascinating Turnkey Transformation, this week from Memphis, Tennessee! Trees covered the yard of this home, removing any signs that there was a structure there to start with. Inside the secluded soon-to-be sanctuary, outdated countertops filled each bathroom and antiquated wallpapers burdened the interiors. To see the stunning before and after photos, keep on reading!

Money management is the single best way for us to create the future we want for ourselves. You can invest with the best of them, have a great paycheck, and still not end up with what we want from our financial future.

In the past, investing in real estate was a venture reserved for those who were both industry-savvy and wealthy. The process was complicated and fraught with pitfalls, so the average person found themselves too intimidated or concerned about potential risk and loss to take the leap. 

This week’s Turnkey Transformation comes from Dallas-Ft. Worth, Texas! Before our team flipped this house, it was a serious eyesore. With an overgrown yard, soiled bathrooms, and outdated floors -- just to name a few -- there wasn’t anything that went untouched. To see the atrocious before photos, and how our team flipped this house into something truly breathtaking, check out the photos below!

Interested in a new venture and don’t know where to start? Real estate investment is one of those things that can seem much more complicated than it really is. Let’s be honest: many of us would rather invest in stocks or something “easy” and “safe.”

So many of us treat our financial health like a new year’s resolution: something to break and forget about a month into the new year. If you’ve struggled to maintain healthy money habits in the past, know that you’re not alone and you’re not a lost cause. Financial freedom is possible. Wealth-building? Possible. A great retirement? Absolutely.

Financial success isn’t beyond your reach, no matter where you are starting this year. That isn’t to say it won’t be challenging: but it is also infinitely rewarding.

We’ve got another extraordinary transformation - this week from Oklahoma City, Oklahoma! Overgrown grass crept through the cracks of the front yard pathway and trash piled high in each room; from the inside out, this house was desperate for someone to rid it of its many burdens and make it a home again. Luckily for us, there’s nothing that our expert team of licensed contractors can’t handle. To see how we turned this space from homely to homey, check out the photos below!

This year, we’ve embraced a new identity as REI Nation. In the beginning, we had our sights set on Memphis, Tennessee, to provide investment opportunities for passive real estate investors. Memphis remains a huge part of our story — it’s our home base, our first love, and looking better than ever in terms of investment opportunities.
