The savings in operational costs alone makes it appealing to institutional players.  

And of course, there are always the major players in most markets: CBRE, Colliers, Cushman, Marcus and Millichap, etc.  

@Taj Richardson we would be strictly equity players.

Im assuming most players involved in deals in your area are seasoned professionals.

It's vitally important to know who you are working with, and have the history of the players involved.

A quick Google search should yield some of the top players.

If I tell you to call 100 FSBOs today, are you going to call them, or are you going to figure out some other way that is your way...text them, email them, send them a post card, when I told you to call them.All the NFL players I know (not that many) know a ton about football and fitness, but all have coaches, trainers, nutritionists. 

Now we need to factor in the other players, defenders, 3rd parties (coaches, refs, fans, etc).

Dollar General and Dollar Tree have been building ~1,000 stores each in the U.S. each year for over a decade, and I've read people on the forums who have pursued strategies for building and leasing specifically to these players at a high volume.How is this rate of new builds sustainable, and how can we determine the point of saturation, when the pipeline ends?

The types of projects, the project costs, timelines.Personally, I think the end result for us all is to have an ever growing and expanding REI company that remains a player in the game for decades to come.
