Welcome to TurnKey Investing!

"Real Estate Portfolio-Building for the Independent Investor!"

This website is dedicated to teaching the Independent-Minded Investor our TurnKey Investing Philosophy of creating safe and steady returns through real estate portfolio-building and investing. A crucial part of that philosophy is our emphasis in building a sustainable, equity-rich, cash flowing investment portfolio without the ongoing need for market appreciation.

We do not focus or discuss flipping, rehabbing, or renovating property. That is for the other other folks who prefer to make what they do a full-time business cutting deal after deal, year after year. We believe in building an investment portfolio to a size that fits your goals and sustains itself through the years without the ongoing necessity of "doing the next deal".

As the title implies, we believe in taking a "turnkey" (systemized) approach to our investment management approach. You should not have to re-invent an investing or a management system. You should adapt it to your situation and environment. Use an investment philosophy that already works and continues to evolve and be perfected in the field. Learn what really happens in the "real world" and learn from real-life case studies on what works and what doesn't without all the hype found in many informercials and promotional seminars.

Whether it is good news or bad news, we tell it all in a direct and straight-forward (PG-13) language. Be prepared. You may not like everything you read or hear in our books and audio programs. It may even be contrary to what is the norm. But, we tell the cold-hard truth of what we do and how we do it. We are not part of the overly-hyped, overly-priced, and high-pressure seminar industry. If you want to become educated and learn the cold-hard truth, this website has resources for you without alls the crazy sales pitches and sales letters. You pick and choose what you like here.

Whether you want to learn about lease-options, property management, "subject to" mortgages, seller-financing, real estate investing fundamentals, real estate portfolio management, I invite you to learn our TurnKey Investing Philosophy of investing today!

Customized Education & Modular Learning Approach to TurnKey Investing

by Matthew S. Chan

Many years ago, in another professional lifetime, when I was a Technical Trainer and Technical Instructor of advanced networking, technologies, and network operating systems, I became indoctrinated to the idea of customized education and modular learning.

For those of you unfamiliar with the concept of modular learning, it is simply the concept of giving the student the ability to custom create and design their own learning curriculum no matter what the subject matter is.

The fact of the matter is, we live in a society where time is precious and adult education is something we pay for. It takes time and costs money to learn any new subject but each of us have a different view of what we should learn and how much time we should take. The determination of success from our learning comes from the results that come from the execution of our action plans. If we execute and manage our affairs well, we should yield successful results. If we don’t, we have poor results. In other words, we no longer get grades as we did in school. We simply measure results.

As a publisher, I believe in providing tight, singular topics my readership and students can choose from. Comprehensive learners prefer to buy “an entire set”, many others prefer to buy their educational materials “a la carte” or “piecemeal”.

In the TurnKey Investor Series, readers and students can immerse themselves in the TurnKey Investing Philosophy that we created and practice ourselves. Or they can simply pick the individual pieces they want to learn about. Either way, the customer comes away happy.

I have had customers that I have never heard from and swoop in buy entire learning sets in one purchase. I have had many more customers who bought one or two titles and come back to purchase a few more. Clearly, repeat customers are a sign they are happy with what they have read or heard.

There is this myth that most readers or students want a monolothic approach to their learning. I believe that represents a small minority of readers and students. This is why encyclopedias, tomes, and other thick reference books don’t sell as well as smaller, tightly-focused titles. This is why Audio Titles have gained so much ground in recent years co-existing with their print versions.

Outside of the walls of Academia, people want to choose to learn in their own way at their own pace. And so, unlike so many of my fellow authors and educators, I don’t try to create a high-priced “monster master course” that tries to cover everything and anything regarding a subject.

I say to my readers and students, “Choose and create your own education” from our suggested set of offerings.

Customized education and modular learning is the new paradigm. Publishers, authors, and educators had best understand this new learning paradigm.
