DSNews The homepage of the servicing industry
This May, DS News’ parent company, the Five Star Institute, will once again host our Single-Family Rental (SFR) Summit, bringing together subject-matter experts to explore solutions related to property acquisition and management; financing; strategies for small, midcap, and large investors; and new developments related to technology and professional services. The Summit will unfold on May 12 at the Four Seasons Los Colinas in Irving, Texas. We hope many of you will be able to join us for that event, but we’re also continuing that examination of SFR in this month’s cover story.
