Hi all, To become a decent sized player in the real estate market, what is the best background to have?

I'm sure all of them are at the least large regional players with north of 1,500 units that they manage.  

Find the big players in Chattanooga on BP.Add the keywords "Chattanooga" and "Tennessee" to the BP keyword alerts.

I will have a story for you when we're ready, and you are a key player.

When mom and pop look at a property they are wanting cash flow, they need to eat off their investment, the corporate owner looks 15, 20 years out, cash flow can be at a lower ROI (can be, not necessarily is) but they are long term players.

I will definitely save money and so can you but you have to be organized and get a few key players right.

Also these big companies like Passco, Inland and Moody are big players and have big relationships with banks and have people with on staff with vast knowledge to deal with all the issues in a DC world.I hope this helps its just my opinion and experience so far....

If the sale is large enough you may have some national players come in. 

Drew is one of the only ones I know that consistently has deals in Delco, and I have 40+ units all in Delco, so I know several of the players. 

Is it an affront when the marketing is pursued with such methods while simultaneously chiding the larger players in this downturn?
