Disclosing too much about your internal structure and workings can invite mischief :-)

@Kat Rathell - we take a similar approach, paper application for free, and the best on paper will be invited to do an online self-service backgroud check.

I interpret this as cashing in and seeing how the SFH market will do in the next 12-24 months.https://therealdeal.com/2019/11/21/moving-out-blackstone-sells-remaining-stake-in-invitation-homes/

I've invited another friend who owns a few doors and a realtor friend who's getting into it as well.
