Our amazing 'Turnkey Transformation' for today is in Dallas, TX. This renovation was lot different than our standard rehab, due to the fact that this house had some fire damage prior to us purchasing the property. We'll hear from Tye, the project manager for this property, to learn more about the rehab. But we'll also discuss the purchase method the investor used for this property as well, as it may shed some insight for other investors looking to finance their properties!

Hidden Mississippi Gem Gets a Facelift
By Chris Clothier on Tue, Sep 11, 2018
This week's 'Turnkey Transformation' property is located in Horn Lake, MS. Now I know what you might be thinking, when did Memphis Invest start having properties in Mississippi? That's a great question and I'm happy to tell you that in addition to Memphis, Dallas, Houston, Little Rock and Oklahoma City, there are plenty of outlying markets that Memphis Invest has been able to enter in these large, sprawling cities.

Turning Out-Dated Home into Renter Oasis - Little Rock Market Turnkey Transformation
By Chris Clothier on Tue, Sep 4, 2018
Our 'Turnkey Transformation' for this week is a property that is located in Little Rock, AR. It's been about a year since we started in the Little Rock market, and it was a smooth transition for us with the city being so similar to Memphis. With a steady market, affordable prices and high demand for housing, Little Rock is a great, stable investment for many turnkey investors. Memphis shares a lot of the same qualities, which is why both cities are a perfect fit for a real estate portfolio!

Boarded Up Bungalow To Bright Rental
By Chris Clothier on Tue, Aug 28, 2018
This week's featured 'Turnkey Transformation' is a property that is located in a historic area of Dallas, TX. Many of the homes we acquire have their own unique challenges, and after 15 years, we've seen and done it all. But if any of our investors have ever purchased or rehabbed an older home with a historical committee, then you're probably familiar with what kind of obstacles we had with this property! At the end of the day though, Memphis Invest was able to turn this rundown and ragged home into a cute cottage for our investor and their residents!

Sometimes when we acquire a property, there's a lot more to do than just repairs. There can be quite a bit of clean up, too! But luckily for us, with our 15 years of experience, there's not much our team hasn't seen or can't handle. Today's 'Turnkey Transformation' is in Dallas, TX, where we see a cluttered, messy home turn into a clean, polished property that residents and investors can be proud of.

Tragically Tacky Turned Treasured Home - Oklahoma City Market Turnkey Transformation
By Chris Clothier on Tue, Aug 14, 2018
If you're like most people, you can probably remember a time when you made a 'bold' decorating decision. Sometimes they work, and sometimes these design choices are a little too far out, even for the most artistic of interior designers! Every once and a while at Memphis Invest, we find some really unique touches to the houses we acquire. I wanted to share today's 'Turnkey Transformation', where the previous owner wasn't afraid of color, and the bathroom vanity might be a little too vain for some!

By Chris Clothier on Tue, Aug 7, 2018
I wanted to start off the month of August showcasing one of our incredible homes in Memphis, TN. What's great about this week's 'Turnkey Transformation' is that it is NEW CONSTRUCTION. Many turnkey companies only offer properties that have been mildly to moderately renovated. But here at Memphis Invest, we want to cater to our investors and residents that desire a brand new home!

5 Low Cost Transformations to Boost Your Investment Property's Appeal
By Chris Clothier on Mon, Sep 26, 2016
Sometimes, real estate investors neglect to put the right pizzazz in their investment properties. We think to ourselves, well: they’re just renting. They don’t care as much. It doesn’t matter what it looks like. We’re telling you: it matters. The rental market is growing and in demand, and there is plenty of competition, even in secondary and tertiary markets.
Renters aren’t going to settle anymore. In order to really compete, it’s important to keep up with some interior design and home showing trends, especially when you start considering renovations.
These are simple changes that will make you property timeless and appealing to a wide pool of renters. Remember: presentation matters, whether you’re showing to buyers or prospective tenants.
