A turn key business is a business that includes everything you need to start running the business immediately. An example of a turn key business would be a franchise storefront. This would include all of the equipment and inventory with no additional work required by the buyer -- (just turn the key and open the doors for business). In the real estate business, turn key real estate education is necessary for the first time investor.
When dealing with turn key real estate, what is included in the purchase price is not always what you assume it be, so it is important for prospective purchasers to be clear on the exact terms and conditions of the sale. For example, if an investor were purchasing a restaurant and it was being sold as a turn key business, you would expect the sale to include the equipment, the furnishings, the food and beverages (liquor) etc., so the new owner can go in and start business once the deal is closed and the keys are handed over, but that may not be the case. If the current owner has certain items that they want to keep, then the sale is no longer a turn key business, but a "partially or mostly" turn key sale. If the owner plans to take a major part of the inventory and/or equipment then the sale is no longer a turn key, but a "real estate only" sale. The terms should clearly state which items are being excluded from the sale of the property.
Learn the Ropes of Turn Key Real Estate
Learning the turn key real estate philosophy can be accomplished with the help of a course, a mentor/coach, or through trial and error. If real estate is totally new to you, it is suggested that you enlist the help of someone who is knowledgeable in the real estate business to make sure that you don't get taken to the cleaners. If you came into the real estate business with the notion that sales are always quick and easy, such as you've seen on the late night infomercials, you'll be sadly disappointed -- it just doesn't work that way. The truth is the seller wants to get the best deal for themselves, just like you want to get the best deal you can get. If they have experienced agents working on their side, you need to arm yourself with a team, at least until you gain the experience and confidence needed to go in and seal a deal on your own.
Turn key real estate investing can be a great opportunity if you can come to terms on the sale. It takes time to learn the ins and outs, but once you get the hang of it, you'll be closing deals without a second thought. In the beginning though, having someone work with you would be in the best interest of your real estate career.
