Jason Hartman talks with Gary Beasley, founder of Roofstock, on the belief that the Single-Family Rental sector is an industry ripe for disruption.

Roofstock is designed exclusively for investing in leased Single-Family Rental homes that generate cash flow day one. Roofstock provides research, analytics, and analysis so investors can evaluate and purchase independently certified properties. Buyers access vetted homes with current cash flow while sellers market homes without lost income or disrupting tenants.
