Investor Search Tips-SFR

Hello everyone. 

Where would you go to find an accredited potential SFR Portfolio buyer? I have looked on Costar for individuals who have done 1031 Exchanges, peeped at alternative websites who act as either a brokerage or glorified listing service, called into my local networks, sifted through hedge fund managers, etc. And now I am looking for more ideas to find that buyer. What would you suggest?

I've ran into people who are actually accredited potential investors and people who look the part but when it gets to the nitty gritty they mention the "I'm with a group of investors, let me talk to them" middle man line.

Need your help. What would you do?

Search for recorded transactions in your farm area. Look for multiple owners who are actively buying. If your portfolio is a good deal you won't have an issue finding buyers.

If you truly have control of a package is one thing, if you are trying to play match maker with no real control, that is a weaker position.
