We know who the big players are, Invitation Homes, AH4R, Progress, Tricon, the list goes on and on.

One of the most important players in your out of state investing would be getting a good property management.

I am looking for contacts and active players in the chico market to talk with.

I learned how to make $100,000 with Mutual Funds when I was on the Oil Tankers with a Union sailing worldwide.

Are we the only players on the field that understand the rules?

Since entering, some of the bigger players have tried to imitate us, but their contracts still have nickel and dime fees littered in there here and there. 

Being that it's your family the feeling in the room might be a tad bit more gentle but what usually wins people over is a method that proves to be working or some sort of progress made in the direction of a really good plan working.Secondly, I'm a REALLY BIG boxing fan, I know of boxing twins that reside in the Houston area, along with some other major players in the boxing world. 

Born here, big enough that no one player holds all the cards, small enough to be known where it counts.

Look at both the big and small players.

@Matt Powell  this model is VERY old news  its how the turn key industry worked prior to the GFC in 07 and 08 when lenders STOPPED doing investor refis for all but the VERY RICH.now as money is rolling again they are just bringing back basically the same products that existed prior to 08 nothing new mysterious or earth shattering here. the trick though is getting more than 4 refis and you can get up to 10 if your VERY well off and qualified or you go portfolio which new players are entering the space  B2R Colony etc.
