Ali Boone
Due Diligence by Ali Boone is a practical guide to evaluating turnkey rental properties before you invest. Boone walks through the red flags and green lights of working with providers, analyzing numbers, and making sure a “passive investment” actually performs as promised. The book emphasizes that due diligence is about asking the right questions, checking assumptions, and verifying claims.
Her approach makes the process repeatable and less overwhelming, especially for busy professionals who don’t have time to manage properties themselves. With clear checklists and examples, Boone gives investors a way to confidently enter the turnkey space, minimizing risk while maximizing the chance of stable, long-term income.
