I think they will give the HML space some real competition.Once they can take non accreds it will really blow up as the bigger they get the more competitive they can be on points and rates. .. although the bigger players are also landing Fund money as well.Were they really shine is take my state Oregon.. we are not allowed to fractionalize Deeds of trust... so the CF through their portals and back end set up.. can fractionalize interest in a single deal.. fund in one name so your no breaking the law's ... and be paying out multiple investors who have small overship interests in the deals..

Just remember that a good player goes where the puck is while a great player goes where the puck will be.  

I lived in Redding for 45 years!
