A Real Estate Investment Chat With John and Kyle from Investories Podcast
Our goal at Boise Turnkey Properties has always been to share our passion for real estate investing. And I recently had the pleasure of speaking with John Hooper and Kyle Robertson on the Investories Podcast to do exactly that. If you’re interested in getting into the investment industry, but are unsure of how to start, let’s jump into some of the most important things to know.
The History of Boise Turnkey Properties
I always like to share my story with potential investors, so they have a better understanding of who I am as their partner and how Boise Turnkey Properties was born. As a Boise native through and through, my passion for real estate sprung from my own personal experience. Before becoming an investor myself, I had a background in education. As my wife and I navigated the process of investing in Boise real estate, we ran into tons of challenges. But no matter what challenges we faced, we were still able to turn a profit. From this experience and our desire to coach others in this process, Boise Turnkey Properties came to fruition.
Our primary focus lies in supporting investors across the nation in finding prime real estate opportunities and turning these investments into incredible streams of passive income for our clients. While our focus is on Boise real estate investments, we support clients throughout the country, helping them find incredible opportunities in a booming real estate market !
While there are many turnkey companies out there, our business model is unique. We work with clients individually to gain a strong understanding of their investment goals; then, we hit the ground running to find the best possible match. Depending on the goals of the client, we help them maneuver through the buying process and utilize our key partnerships throughout Boise to support any rehabilitation to the property. Our in-house property management company, Cohesion Properties , provides a supplementary service to support investors in managing tenants and the maintenance of their investments, creating a stream of passive income for our clients.
How To Get Started As An Investor
Jumping into the investment industry without experience is terrifying. Trust us, we know. That’s why we not only partner with our clients to find the perfect investments, but we also coach them on best practices and how to get to know the business and the market. As you consider your options, here are some pointers we like to give first-time investors that are wary of taking that first step.
- Stop agonizing over buying your first property. It won’t get you anywhere. Think about your goals as a real estate investor and speak with professionals.
- Schedule a consultation with a real estate attorney yesterday. This might be the last point on your ongoing checklist but bring that all the way up to #1. An hour-long meeting with a real estate attorney is the best investment you can make. You’ll get all of your questions answered, a sample lease, and a lasting connection that will defend you in any legal issues with tenants. We still work with the same attorney we found over fifteen years ago at this initial stage.
- Screen your tenants. Don’t let all of your hard work finding the perfect property, building it up, and working through the paperwork go to waste. Instead, find good tenants to take care of the space.
- Or hire a property management company. Ensure that you apply the same screening process to a property management company if you go that route. Ensure that they are investors themselves, so they know the business and can proactively handle issues and communicate with you.
If you prefer a more hands-off approach, we handle all of these aspects for our clients. We discuss your goals, dissect all the available options in the area, detail a realistic timeline, and then get down to business. Our team will be out looking at properties, negotiating on our clients’ behalf, and handling the closing process, establishing a source of passive income for our investors.
The Boise Market
A unique aspect of the Boise real estate market is the popularity of short-term rentals. The demand for short-term rentals is skyrocketing, and this is coming from multiple areas. With the entire housing market booming in Boise, many investors are utilizing short-term rentals to come down and shop for investments.
In other ways, Boise is uniquely situated. Endless opportunities are at the fingertips of every resident. One minute you can be going for a leisurely bike ride downtown, and the next, you’re on a mountain trail with stunning views. The perfect combination of incredible outdoor recreation and the vibrant nature of a bustling city, Boise is truly a hidden gem for real estate investors.
If you know the business, build meaningful, long-lasting professional relationships, and put in that initial work, you’ll be amazed at how many opportunities will drop in your lap. Listen to the full podcast here , and let’s chat about your real estate goals.
