HomeUnion vs. Roofstock vs. Memphis Invest
1 May 2019 | 12 replies
I have not looked at Homeunion, I have reviewed roofstock a few times (I like that they post "whole portfolios" for sale, that is interesting), but I have been using Memphis Invest for roughly 18 months now and I have several properties with them.My experience is that they are indeed HIGHLY professional and control all aspects of the deal (most importantly from my perspective the property management).This isn't a commercial for them, I am just a customer of theirs, I don't get any remuneration for recounting my experiences, and if they were bad, I would recount them just the same.Memphis Invest is very transparent, they will provide numbers to their clients that list statistics across their 5000 property portfolio.
