One thing I appreciate about living in a major metro is the talent pool. Need an engineer, architect, project manager, or someone in a specialized field? There's probably a recruitment firm nearby that does nothing but find people like that.
Sometimes all it takes is one major employer or retailer moving into an overlooked area to change its trajectory. An H-E-B or a Lockheed Martin facility can bring jobs, infrastructure, and new demand. Suddenly, land that was once considered undesirable gets a lot more attention.
Everyone's talking about jets, let's talk infrastructure. Never own anything that flies, floats, or fornicate. Own the infrastructure instead. For example, own the hangars. Aircraft owners need somewhere to park, and you collect rent. I'd rather own the real estate.
I prefer to sell completed homes to BTR operators rather than hold them & take on the cost of maintaining & renting them. I need that liquidity for other projects. My cash reserves are primarily for land acquisitions, where quick, all cash closings have worked to my advantage.
BTR development across the Sunbelt continues to create opportunities. Population growth and demand for single family rentals are driving interest, but successful projects still come down to the fundamentals: location, land costs, infrastructure & disciplined execution.
To subdivision developers looking to move inventory: don't be discouraged by headlines about institutional investors turning away offers. They're not the only BTR operators in the market. Others are still looking for opportunities. Do your due diligence & explore your options.
@DavidSmuts@Mavmetax People like him cause more harm to souls than good. He's no different than Life site, Kokx and even Vigano. They sow confusion and division, deliberately. One drop of poison in a cup of water is still a poisonous cup of water.
@DavidSmuts@Mavmetax Hmm. Malachi Martin is sus. I read and reread all the books and genuinely trusted him. However, what I didn't know he was CIA and God alone knows what else.
The only thing I'm an expert in is real estate development, mostly residential, with some redevelopment & commercial work. I'm not a political analyst, aviation expert, marriage counselor, or behavior analyst. I just read the news on Twitter like everyone else & give my 2 cents.
I hate when people say they went to Harvard on their Linkedin and it's a 4 week executive course. It's a net negative on a resume and I would immediately not hire you based on that. Feels like lying.
It's funny before the ROAD Act, getting them to absorb inventory was no problem. Besides having their own development arm, they took over supply from builders. Are they showing off?
Invitation Homes: We’re watching for shadow ‘accidental landlord’ supply
Invitation Homes, one of the nation’s largest single-family rental landlords with 85,961 wholly owned homes, says the rental supply picture recently is improving in some markets that have been hardest hit by the multiple year post-Pandemic Housing Boom cyclical cooling window. But on its Q3 2026 earnings call on Thursday, management flagged a wild card it’s keeping an eye on: “shadow [SFR] supply.”

When you buy a jet, yacht, second home etc, you rent it out to gain revenue for operating expenses. The hiring of the crew is decided through a firm that manages & maintain the aircraft. The owners rarely genuinely care as long as their needs are met up to standard.
re: yesterday's plane crash in Miami.
The owner of the jet should answer questions about why he was employing such young and (relatively) inexperienced pilots. Was it because they get paid less than more experienced ones?
BTR operators aren't just acquiring houses. They're investing in communities that need to attract & retain residents. Family oriented design, convenient amenities, safe pedestrian access & planned common areas make a difference. Build a community, not just a collection of homes.
A BTR community shouldn't look or function like a typical subdivision. Thoughtful planning matters. Walkable streets, sidewalks, parks, trails, green space & shared amenities create places where families can actually enjoy living.
Institutional buyers look beyond the number of homes delivered. They care about operating costs, construction quality, amenities, infrastructure, and long term performance. A successful BTR project has to work as a rental community from day one.
The move toward BTR is changing more than who buys the homes. It's changing how communities are planned, financed, built & delivered. Builders entering this space need to understand the rental business, not just residential construction.
