Turnkey, simply put, means if the key is in your hand, you can move right in. Any turnkey product or service is finished and ready for immediate use. The Crane Private Residences provides you access to homes in a turn-key luxury development managed by Crane Resorts, when not in use by the owner.  The question remains though: what makes an offer turnkey and what makes it a good turnkey service? Here are three things you should always look for when investing in a turnkey real estate option.

A Hassle-Free Experience
Moving into a new property comes with its own headaches, and this can only be exacerbated when the property is in a foreign country. You must consider multiple variables from furniture and appliances to renovations and, the time spent to take care of it all.

When you invest in a turnkey property, you shouldn’t have to worry about any of these obstacles. In fact, one of the most attractive features of buying a turnkey home is the removal of hassle and the saved time.

Choosing to buy with The Crane Private Residences means you’ll have access to a hands-on service that includes a dedicated Property Manager, supported by the wider resort maintenance operations. A fully furnished home, fully stocked kitchen and rooms styled and ready for your enjoyment and living.

Quality Land, Build & Furnishing
Turnkey properties are attractive because they are move-in ready and usually built with excellent standards on good land, in good neighbourhoods. Turnkey companies will handle all the construction well before the home is on the market and some will even provide property management services to help you find tenants when you are out of country.

The Crane Private Residences’ furniture packages combine luxury design aesthetics and inviting Caribbean living spaces to create bright and expansive homes. Each residence features oversized master and guest bedrooms with ocean and garden views; large kitchens complete with granite counter tops; spacious, private patios perfect for dining, lounging and entertaining; and generously scaled natural stone bathrooms with large soaker tubs and glass showers.

On top of that, residents enjoy underground parking, daily housekeeping, and in-room maintenance.

Add-On Services
The best of the best in turnkey will go above and beyond to make your experience as easy as possible. Some like The Crane Private Residences will have additional services such as their Rental Management service. This option gives Residents the chance to join an expertly managed rental programme, offering your property as a vacation rental for shorter stays and allowing for easy passive income.

On the other hand, if you’ve made your investment with the intention of staying on island your monthly Community Fee, gives you access to the services and amenities of The Crane’s cosmopolitan resort community. That includes 24/7 Security and gated entry, a Concierge, access to a Kids Club and Fitness Facility, Beach Towel Service, two flood lit tennis courts and so much more.
