Introduction Investors of all ages, experience levels, and backgrounds know that they should always

seek investments that provide the highest level of return while also including some safety

and a relatively low amount of risk. With extremely high levels of volatility in the

"traditional" investment markets of recent years, no one seems to feel safe and the future is

uncertain.

When markets are up and returns are high, everyone feels great about their investments.

But, with so many unexpected events occurring without warning, investors have grown

wary that their returns of today could be gone by the next morning. They are now

desperately seeking a way to find stable investments that will produce great returns for

them, year after year, and provide income and wealth well into retirement. Most

investment advisors cannot provide this, but a few localized private investment companies

have risen up to offer exactly that.

While many people are aware of how real estate

investments can provide stable, long term

income, value growth, and tax advantages, they

are often hesitant to add real estate to their

investment portfolio because of the time it

takes to learn about the local real estate

markets, financing, renovations, and ongoing

management. This makes real estate an

unreasonable investment vehicle for many people, and that

is exactly why turnkey real estate investment companies have become so popular in recent

years.

These companies, like GC Realty Investments, enable investors from all backgrounds and

situations to add real estate to their portfolios right away, without any of the hassles or

burdens required by traditional investment models.

Investor clients of GC Realty Investments are now able to access some of the best real

estate investment options available today without lifting a finger because professional

management is built right in.

In this eBook, you'll learn exactly how you can invest in some of the most secure assets

available, providing returns often in the double-digits, managed by professionals, and

protected from many risks in ways that traditional methods cannot offer. And, you'll learn

how to do all of this while sitting on your couch!

website to request a free private consultation. We will answer any questions you may have

about our turnkey program and determine if you are a good candidate to become one of

our happy investor clients.

Direct Investment in Real Estate Out-Performs Traditional Investments

While the vast majority of average people

invest their retirement funds in traditional

investment vehicles like stocks, mutual

funds, EFT's, bonds, etc., over 90% of the

wealth held in the United States is held in

real estate. The wealthiest investors in

America know that while companies go

bankrupt, commodities run out, and markets

fluctuate dramatically, everyone still has to

live somewhere.

Real estate investment in the residential sector, in particular, provide returns and safety

like no other investment option. Cash flow from residential rental property is typically

stable and reliable, and tends to increase over time when located in areas that possess a

strong job market in a variety of industries. In addition to increasing cash flow, real estate

investments offer long term appreciation potential and tax benefits.

In terms of safety, the stock market is now likened to a casino in its behavior and mutual

funds are usually not much better. Investment advisors tell their clients to stay in the

market and weather their losses. They tell them to invest even more when the market is

low, but the actual net return in long term stock market investments is now around 3%

after inflation costs and account fees and commissions are factored in. These paltry

returns offer no risk protection from market crashes, corporate bankruptcies, and an array

of other unforeseen risks.

Investors that add real estate to their portfolios enjoy the reassurance of knowing that

even if a house burns down, the insurance company will pay to repair or rebuild it, and

protection can even be included to cover rental income loss.

In the case of investors who choose to work with professional turnkey real estate

investment providers, even things like property maintenance, tenant interaction, and

accounting are provided within the investment package. Investors simply check their bank

account statement periodically to see that their rental income is being deposited on a

regular basis and know that their investment is performing well for them.

It's no wonder why the world's smartest investors like Warren Buffet have turned their

attention to the residential real estate market for investment purposes and now focus a

significant amount of their attention on acquiring rental homes in the best US markets.

Acquisition of residential property by major corporations, investment funds, and

private equity firms is now so prevalent that the opportunity for individual investors to

gain access to the best properties is becoming much more difficult if they don't have

access to a professional team to help them.

Individual investors who choose to work with experienced turnkey real estate investment

companies have the best chance of succeeding as they are working with a team that can

compete with much larger entities to provide superior investment opportunities for their

clients.

The Importance of Choosing the

Right Investment Market

There are many factors that go into

locating the right city or town

for your real estate

investments. While many

places qualify, some factors

you want to consider are

population size, economic

stability, job growth in a

variety of different

industries, rental demand

(especially from young people), and how well it

attracts people who desire a high-quality, but still affordable way of life.

Cities like Chicago, Illinois, for example are at the top of the list for prime real estate

markets as they provide all of these advantages and more.

Chicago is the 3rd most populated city in the US and is one of the most sought after

locations for investment because of its robust economy and consistently affordable housing

prices.

Investors are drawn to Chicago from all over the world because housing prices in

locations like California, New York, and London have become so high in comparison to

rental rates that residential investments in other cities often make no sense.

In addition to market factors, considerations like city planning, open space, access to public

transportation, top-notch universities, beauty and art are all extremely important. While

many cities are considered excellent in some of these areas, Chicago excels in all of them

while still ranking relatively low on the cost of housing index, making it a prime investment

location.

The most successful individual investors typically select a highly experienced local real

estate investment firm to help them decide which neighborhoods offer the highest

likelihood of appreciation potential, consistent income from rental demand, and value for

their investment dollars.

Wherever you choose to invest, make sure that you select a proven team of experienced

investors to help you navigate the local market and manage the day-to-day activities

involved in your investment to ensure that you realize the best possible returns without

having to do the work yourself.

Who is Investing in Turnkey Real Estate?

Ever since the financial crisis of 2008 triggered a wave of investors exiting traditional

investment products, the popularity of direct investment in real estate has been on the rise and

individual investors are reaping the rewards. The added popularity of self-directed investment

accounts (both IRA's and 401k's) has made it possible to direct retirement funds into real estate

in ways that have always been allowed by IRS guidelines, but were never made available by

traditional investment providers.

Investors are now able to utilize retirement accounts, mortgages, and cash to purchase real

estate investments with built-in management by turnkey investment companies.

While many retired individuals have managed to stabilize their income portfolios through

direct turnkey real estate investment, one demographic experiencing a boom in investment

growth is that of the Millennial generation.

Millennials have seen the rise and fall of

the real estate market, but with their

generation fueling the growth in many

major US cities, they see the value in

property ownership and the future it can

create for them.

The interesting part is they are not opting for the traditional real estate investment routes.

Most of them are turning towards turnkey investments, which gives them the opportunity to

own property without the hassle of having to find it or manage it. This allows them to focus on

their careers while their investment properties provide constant cash flow and equity over

time.

Turnkey real estate investment is quite different from other real estate investment methods

such as fix-and-flips where the investor has to find a property, repair, rent and manage it. That

method requires a lot of work, which becomes an uphill task for those who have a day job.

Turnkey investment properties are already renovated and rented to well-qualified tenants. This

method enables the investor to start making a profit from the first day of purchase.

Case Study #1

William is a corporate analyst living and working in downtown Chicago. While he enjoys

his job and receives great benefits, he works long hours and his time away from work is

mostly spent bicycling and writing. William's

investments have been almost entirely in stocks and

mutual funds that are offered by his company's 401k

plan and his IRA account provider.

The performance of his investments have been

"okay", but they still fall short of his goals for

retirement.

Now in his mid-40's, William wants to increase the performance of his investment portfolio

to get back on track with his retirement goals, but he doesn't have the extra time to commit

to researching his options or manage anything new.

Fortunately for William, one of his colleagues from work told him about GC Realty

Investments and how they provide turnkey investment properties with built-in

management. After submitting a request on their website for a free consultation, William

received a call back and learned how easy it would be to acquire his first investment

property and that he could start receiving income from his new investment as soon as the

next month.

William reviewed the details of several available investment properties that GC Realty

Investments had recently purchased, renovated, and placed great tenants in. Given

William's good credit history and a reasonable amount of cash for a down payment, he

realized that he should be able to easily qualify for the purchase of any of the properties

offered.

One of the available properties was a nice 2 bedroom, 2 bathroom, 1,087 square foot, single

family home of brick construction, priced at only $95,000 which everyone agreed was a

great price. It was rented to a married couple for $1,300 per month on a 2-year lease, and

was only 15 minutes away from his apartment downtown.

The numbers on the report provided by GC Realty Investments showed that after his

monthly loan payment, taxes, insurance, property management fees, utilities, maintenance,

and even a vacancy allowance, a 20% down payment on a 30-year mortgage would

produce an immediate monthly cash flow of over $400! William, being very good with

math, calculated that this would produce a 22% total cash-on-cash return, so he asked if he

could take a closer look at it right away to see if this was really possible.

After a brief tour with a

representative from GC Realty

Investments, William was

impressed to discover how

nicely remodeled the property

was and how clean the tenants

kept it. He decided to apply for

an investment property loan with

a local mortgage broker that

works closely with GC Realty

Investments and specializes in investment property loans. After a few days, William was

approved for financing and was able to close on his purchase of the property 3 weeks later.

From day one, GC Realty Investments managed every piece of the transaction, continued

collecting rents and answering maintenance calls, and sent William his first investment

statement just 10 days later with a check!

Six months later, William was so happy with his investment and the performance of GC

Realty Investments, he started investigating the possibility of purchasing his second turn-

key investment property.

If you are inspired by William’s story and wants to follow his footsteps, then set up a free

private consultation call by visiting GC Realty Investments website now. We would be

happy to help.

Why Now is the Best Time to Start Investing in Turnkey Real Estate

Everyone knows that affordable housing has been a main concern of the US economists for

many years, but the problem has not been resolved. While this is an ongoing problem for

many, an opportunity lies within it for investors.

Wages for the bottom 90% of Americans have been stagnant since 1999, and existing home

sale price for the same period have increased by 66%. This means that fewer and fewer

Americans are able to find affordable housing and they are on the move to find areas that

provide a high standard of living, job opportunities, and affordable housing, but their

options are shrinking as housing prices continue to force people out of the market.

The opportunity to invest in Chicago's residential housing market is prime right now

as people are coming in droves to accept jobs and enjoy the abundance of the city.

Rental prices are reasonable for tenants while providing excellent cash flow for

investors, and the influx of real estate buyers will continue to drive both rental and

real estate values upward.

Major investment companies have taken note of Chicago's incredible real estate market.

Their acquisitions will continue to drive market prices up, but will also start to reduce the

opportunity for individuals to buy inventory for their own portfolios over time. This is

why now is the best time to buy turnkey investment property in Chicago while the best

opportunities still exist.

Case Study #2 Linda is a retired business owner in Florida who sold her successful company several years

ago. While she has the experience and skill

set to purchase and manage investment

properties on her own, she has grown

tired of working so hard and wants to

enjoy her retirement by travelling and

spending time with her grandchildren.

She takes an active role in her investments

and wants to know what's happening, but

she doesn't want to get phone calls about

leaky faucets or have to send out rent notices. As a savvy investor, Linda keeps an eye on

the stock market, precious metals, commodities, and takes an active role in managing her

investment portfolio. She has owned real estate investment in the past and knows what to

look for in an investment property and manager.

After attending a seminar at a local real estate investment club, she learned about the

concept of turnkey real estate investments. This idea appealed to her as a solution since

she already knew the benefits of owning rental real estate, but she needed someone else to

locate, renovate, and manage the property for her.

Linda had been doing research on various housing markets across the US, and Chicago

consistently appeared as one of the best cities in terms of cost of living, quality of life, job

growth, etc.

When she searched the internet to see if there were any turnkey real estate investment

companies specializing in the Chicago area, she found GC Realty Investments. After doing

some research, she found that the reviews of the company were all excellent and decided to

inquire about the possibility of investing with them.

Linda spent some time on the phone with GC Realty Investments and got all of her

questions answered. She felt they were very professional and requested some sample

properties to review. After looking through some information on available properties, she

decided that she wanted to make a trip to Chicago to meet the people who would be

managing her business there and take a look at some properties and the surrounding

neighborhoods.

Linda spent a weekend in Chicago, viewed 4

different properties, and selected one that felt best

to her. It was a 3 bedroom, 2 bathroom, single

family home rented to a nice family. With a

purchase price of only $95,000 and current gross

rental income of $1,250 per month, she realized

that this was an incredible opportunity and asked

to put it under contract right away.

The renovation done by GC Realty Investments was clearly high quality, but Linda chose to

hire a local professional inspector anyway. After Linda returned home to Florida, the

inspection arrived via e-mail and showed that the house had been recently renovated to

current building code and everything was in good order. She decided to schedule the

closing for a week later and was able to sign all the documents via mail. Linda was able to

pay cash for the property from funds she had in reserve from the sale of her business.

GC Realty Investments maintained communications with Linda before, during, and

after the closing process. Nothing changed for the tenants following the closing, and

everything flowed very smoothly for everyone.

The next month, Linda received her first check from GC Realty Investments in the amount

of $792. This was her income after expenses for only one month of owning the property.

Linda sat on her couch reviewing her closing documents and the first income statement

from GC Realty Investments. She realized that this investment created a 10% cash-on-cash

return for her while allowing her to travel and visit her grandchildren, just like she wanted,

without her ever having to take a single phone call.

If she would have known about this 20 years ago, she would have started investing like this

at that time, rather than working so hard in her business far longer than she expected to.

Linda set a goal to acquire a new investment property every year going forward and to use

a portion of new and increasing monthly cash flow to start a college fund for her

grandchildren.

Investments now to sign up for a Free Private Consultation. We would be happy to assist

you in creating passive income.

But, What About the Risks?

It's true that every type of investment carries a certain degree of risk.

Stock markets can rise and fall over night, mutual

and pension funds can quietly quadruple their

management fees or acquire corporate "necessities"

like yachts and jets for their executives at the

expense of their investor's returns, and banks can

close while the FDIC really only carries enough

insurance to cover around 1% of the deposit accounts in

the US.

While real estate carries its own risks, those risks can be reduced or eliminated by working

with a professional team of investors that researches and reports on market conditions,

projected returns, and management fees up-front. When the team of professionals that

manage your investment real estate portfolio also personally own property in the same

neighborhoods, you know that your management team has a vested interest in your safety

and success because it literally equates to the safety and success of their own investments.

Here are some common questions and answers from first-time turn-key real estate

investors:

What if my investment property burns down or gets damaged by the tenant or a

natural disaster?

All investment properties carry hazard insurance to reimburse the investor for covered

damages, including total loss. Optional rental income loss insurance is also available from

select providers for an additional premium.

What if the real estate

market drops and my

investment property loses

value?

While value declines are

always possible in any market,

risk can be avoided by locating

properties that fall within a

very specific range of criteria.

When market prices fall, the

largest losses are experienced at the top end of the market. By focusing on investment

properties at the lower-middle range of pricing that still offer good quality and excellent

value for the capital invested, investors can turn market declines to their advantage by

holding properties that will remain in high demand during any market conditions. When

cash flow remains strong and stable regardless of market values, investors can rest easy

through any type of changes in the market.

Why Turnkey Real Estate Investments Make so much Sense

Starting out in real estate investments can be very daunting for those with no prior

experience. Conducting market research, pin-pointing opportunities within neighborhoods

and price ranges, negotiating purchase contracts, managing construction crews, finding

tenants and conducting background checks, ongoing property maintenance, accounting,

and so much more is the work required for a single real estate investment to be successful.

An experienced team of real estate investors that provides in-house management is an

ideal win-win scenario for both the investor and the turnkey management team. The real

estate investment company sources the properties in desirable neighborhoods, manages all

construction, places tenants and handles ongoing management for their own investment

portfolio on a daily basis.

The turnkey model allows the

investment company to offer these

services to their investor clients

as well and provides them with a

simple entry point for well-

sourced and high quality real

estate investment opportunities

without the need for years of

training and headaches.

By taking advantage of turnkey real estate investment opportunities with a proven

investment company, individuals like William and Linda can fast-track their results and

experience the benefits of cash flow and value appreciation immediately without sacrificing

any precious time which would otherwise be dedicated to property management and

tenant relations. These obvious benefits have placed turnkey real estate investments in

high demand, and relationships with professional investment and management companies

are now highly sought after.

If turnkey investment makes sense to you too, then don’t waste time. Sign up now for a

Is Passive Income Really Possible?

Most people have been taught to believe that "passive income" means that there will be no

work involved and that profit will just magically and consistently come in every month

without having to

lift a finger. Let us

dispel this myth by

telling you that any

successful investor

in any industry is

always going to do a

certain amount of

work to oversee

their investment

portfolio, measure results, and

make adjustments to increase their level of safety and success going forward.

"Passive" may simply mean that you don't have to do things like swing hammers or

manage tenants because you hired someone else to do it.

Successful investors utilize the leverage of services provided by others to ensure their

success while also enjoying the freedom of their time since others are doing the work for

them.

There is tremendous value in working with a company that has already dealt with most of

the issues that will occur over the course of your investment. You are paying for their

experience so you don’t have to incur the expense of learning along the way and making

mistakes. The price you pay for highly-skilled professional management will be very well

worth it.

Some of the daily tasks that an experienced property management company like GC Realty

Investments will provide for you are:

Handling phone calls including late night emergency calls.

Finding quality tenants, meeting them, showing the properties, answering

their questions and renting them out.

Collecting rent from tenants every month on your behalf and disbursing

funds to your bank account. If the tenant fails to pay rent on time, collecting

the payment including late fees.

Proving you with an itemized statement showing income and expenses

related to your turn-key investment property.

Taking work orders, contacting contractors and getting repairs done.

Working with county and other government entities.

In-house property maintenance services.

Working with housing authority, lawyers, contractors, dealers, agents, cable

guys, phone companies, gas and other utilities.

Arranging home inspections.

Marketing/Promotions

When choosing your property management team, it's also important to consider the level

of service provided to tenants. Excellent tenant management results in lower repair costs

and lower turn-over rates.

GC Realty Investment provides state-of-

the-art property management services for

investors and is one of the few companies

that will offer its tenants a 24-hour

emergency repair service line. They

ensure that investor clients don’t have to

worry about the minute details of

maintaining and managing the property,

and this is a critical factor in creating and

enjoying passive income investments.

Once you've selected your investment property and completed your purchase, you'll start

receiving reports and direct cash flow deposits from your property manager. Then you'll

begin to feel the benefits that real estate investments can provide while creating a long

term relationship with your management team.

Relationships are critical to the success of the investment since investor needs can change

just like markets, and open lines of communication create continued opportunities for

success and happiness.

have purchased and renovated hundreds of cash flowing properties for ourselves and have

now opened that opportunity to others who are interested in real estate based investment

returns in the double-digits.

We are committed to making the property investment experience as simple and hassle-free

as possible for our clients. Our goal is to have each one of our clients literally earning

double-digit returns while sitting on their couch!

Our company is uniquely positioned as one of Chicago's most senior residential property

investment companies, and one of the very few that provides turnkey real estate

investment opportunities to individual investors with ongoing in-house management built

right in. We provide a complete investor package by handling property acquisition,

managing renovation, screening and placing tenants, and then finally managing the

property following its sale to one of our investor clients.

What makes us different from other investment companies is that we source and renovate

only properties that meet our long term rental criteria. This means that our clients only

purchase properties from us that we would keep ourselves. The same standard is applied

wouldn't be happy to keep in our own rental portfolio.

We have a history of client satisfaction that speaks for itself:

"GC Realty made investing in real estate more hassle free and lucrative than I thought

possible. They always respond to any questions or concerns promptly. I consider us

partners!" ~ William Lee

"Great company! I would be willing to trust them with any of my real estate. They work

together as a team to provide the best services you'll ever find in the Chicago area." ~

Linda Carroll

“All along the way, GC has made it easy for us. They respond quickly - whether its a

question from us or a problem at a property. They provide guidance when asked, and

most importantly, they treat our business as if its their own. I will definitely continue

to work with GC Investments in the future.” ~Jim B.

“Having purchased a single home from Mark Ainley and the team at GC, I was really

impressed with the quality of product, the ease of transaction, and their outstanding

ongoing management. This led to purchase number 2, and recently this was followed

by another 7 homes, with 9 more now in the pipeline. I have such trust and confidence

in Mark and co, and the proof is in just how easy they make every part of the process,

and the fact the money really does come in as expected every month. An absolute

pleasure to deal with!” ~ Dan B.

“It has been about three months since we closed on our properties and it has been a

good experience. GC has always been very fair and honest. The rent for one of the

properties ended up being less than expected, but we were pleasantly surprised when

Mark quickly came up with a potential solution to make up for the lost rent. Whenever

we have questions, Mark is always quick to respond and offer help. It is comforting to

have a PM we can rely on and have confidence in. It has been a pleasure to work with

Mark and GC and we look forward to continuing our relationship for many more

years!” ~M. K.

“What a pleasure it was working with Mark Ainley and the GC Realty Investments

team. I was hesitant at first to work with a "turnkey" provider but after seeing their

whole process from beginning to end, I couldn't help but wonder why more people

don't invest this way.” ~P.M.
