Typically these are buyers with lots of cash sitting around from a high income job or business or a 1031 exchange that sold off houses and now wants a small multi property in a high quality area.The bigger players in the hundreds of units some ore UHNM (ultra high net worth) or they are syndicators.

or unwritten rules between the bigger players not to run the bids up.

I am glad that you inspire other to be big players in BP too.

In regard to institutional real estate investments, the advice of an expert who works in the industry every day, knows all the players and their track records, and performs due diligence on each offering is a great benefit to you and comes to you at no cost.If you’re interested in a “hands-off” experience I wanted to share some information on DSTs (Delaware Statutory Trusts).

In our state or and wa cal western had a presence however was not the dominate player I believe northwest trustee service was or is. 

Hi BP, I'm a CPA, Berkeley graduate, aspiring entrepreneur, professional poker player, badminton athlete, crypto-currency enthusiast -- now interested in investing in real estate! 

Did not know that Nudge and everyone else were such big players.

Your responses to others I feel are great and helpful and it's great to see a real player in the game take time out of your obviously busy travels to help others.MikeOH The only guy WHO CAN DO THIS AND GET AWAY WITH IT absolutely deserves recognition.

I can't control interest rates or tax policy or a wide variety of things.But I can control my own efforts ... making one more call, one more inquiry, following up one more time etc.Congress and other government players make life more difficult when they pass idiotic laws with automatic extensions or automatic expirations (Bush tax cuts).

On PM what I see is the less you pay and the more you negotiate fees, the worse service you get, unless perhaps you are a very big player.
