Still today, most every competitor of ours has blatantly or partially launched their services based on Carrot... but Carrot still crushes the competition in most every measureable performance indicator... because of my intentional focus to just outserve our clients.

They are very thorough and competitive on price.  

There are plenty of property package carriers that are just as competitive and can be purchased through an IA.

Do you want to gain a competitive edge and secure better terms?

I live and invest in a classic "cash flow markets" (which has seen 8 years of steady appreciation and is hyper competitive and has very little inventory), and I would not feel comfortable to promise you quick and easy cash flow, certainly not within the time limitations of a 1031. 

And that makes it hard to make a competitive offer.

In my mind, the competition would be to fill the open units.

We do properties 75k plus in value, but, it’s a niche market with little competition at those loan sizes.  

My family is boycotting Apple for two reasons.      1, We believe in capitalism/ free market, and having a market share of 90% for one company like Apple is not a competitive business environment.  

The competition is really tough right now.
