We’ve got one big player that probably has at least 600 units with their own rental office and full time maintenance crew.

Not sure their volume its certainly not like Kiavi or lima or one of the big players..

I would love to meet any real players in the area who would love to pay it forward and help someone green like myself.

Big players like Ford, GM, and even tech companies are betting on Detroit.

There are other players in the game to compare with like Kenny Bedwell at STR Insights or Bill Faeth's coaching.

@Greg ReeseMost small investors will benefit by having the LLC created in the state where the property is located at.Creating an LLC in a state like Nevada, Delaware, Wyoming may be better for the big players if items such as charging orders, business friendly case law, anonymity are important to you.However, be mindful that setting up LLC's in those states will add to your costs as you may have increased annual fees for annual LLC fees + registered agent fees.

Fannie Mac is a publically traded company, ticker FNMA (more later).These GSE’s were created to to promote homeownership by providing liquidity to the secondary mortgage market.These are GIANT housing players, and this is hard to understate.

They then missed out on several more years of growth because they got out of the game and waited on the sidelines for things to look better. 2010 to 2012 was the period that cash investors were the players or those with IRA keep in mind investor loans were still basically non existent in those years for all those expect very well to do Investors beginners were not getting investor loans. 

I don't know how the really big players stomach it.Something else I failed to mention was how the PM's are also tacking on fees on top of rent to extract even more money from our tenants. 

I have only 3 doors that I manage so not a big time player so wanted to start with some cheaper software and I heard on the podcasts that RentRedi was included in my pro membership so I signed up.
