The price of entry for new players is just too much.  

Because I can look at it from all sides now, I have a better understanding of the mentally of each player in this real estate investment game. 

It's tough to break into bigger deals, mainly because it's dominated by strong players.  

There are a couple of serious projects by major players coming to JC soon.  

Especially some of the turnkey players sell their deals based on cheap financing and people are paying as much as 20 grand over retail based on leveraged cash flow.

In fact, the old third party originations are not allowed now.There is also the CFPB, a new cop on the block, they will be looking at big players and pretty busy, but if someone coughs out there they could come down on any individual or private deal that is in violation.Back on topic, as I said, I'll bet the firm mentioned will have a compliance officer, I can't see something at that magnitude not being compliant or at least attempt to be.

Can't get that out of a CD!

The same players who brought us the RESO TRUST have done it all over again.
