@Trenton Pelloquin There are certainly benefits to QBO, including the fact that many in the industry players are using it, which could facilitate delegation of bookkeeping activities and tax preparation. 

@Ryan MarbleOrlando and Tampa are definitely different markets but like most markets, design and amenities tend to be the key players.

From what I have seen, only players here in US that go that route are the large funds like blackrock etc.

Big players like FedEx and St.

It's puzzling that this market appears to support only a single dominant player. 

We have a wide network of investors worldwide, but our business operations happen right here in metro Detroit.

Ask them who the biggest player in the room is. 

Two different animals really and I don't see creative financing is typically a reality with either option.Typically for tax liens and deeds you will need cash to be a player and cash that you can tie up for 1 year or two at minimum.   

Eleven players on each side of the ball, we've done the math, it's an average of $477,272 / year / starting player.
