Turnkey Investing vs Traditional Real Estate | What Actually Works

In this episode of the Generations of Wealth Podcast, Derek sits down with Zach Lemaster, founder of Rent to Retirement, to discuss how turnkey real estate investing has evolved and why new construction is becoming an increasingly attractive strategy for long-term investors.

Zach shares his journey from serving as an Air Force Captain and practicing optometry to building one of the nation’s largest turnkey investment companies. Together, they explore market selection, passive investing, new construction versus rehabs, financing strategies, and why successful investing starts with understanding your long-term goals—not simply buying properties close to home.
