Ive already met alot of helpful members and I've found many of the players i need!

I used to fund the biggest player there and they no longer provide them and have moved into new construction.. a good sign.. those that bought 5 years ago have made some significant equity.. no one really wants to buy real estate that never goes up..

When wholesaling a house you can be direct with the seller - unless for finding some owner financed notes (which probably were not 3rd party serviced) the sellers are companies and note investors who have been around know the players

You're certainly in a very good financial position to start shopping for a multifamily and obviously are prioritizing your real estate education.

If something is sitting, the other local players may know something you don't know... 

@John Kim I don't know if you will find a 'major player' at the 40k square feet level, maybe if you are in a very urban area. 

If you are going to have them manage your 70 unit, and there is a 150 unit 2 miles down the road, don't expect things to get taken care of right away because more than likely they will prioritize the larger complex when it comes to things like repairs, emergencies etc.

Fees for multi million dollar deals are higher than for a standard deal below $1M as there are few players with that capacity.

Thanks :)Brandon Turner I know of a few poker players that moved on to REI.

Most importantly you need to convey confidence and assurance you are a player and not just wasting their time.
