David Larson, Founder, Advisor

   Chris McCain began his real estate career in property management 20++ years ago right here in the “Biggest  Little City in the World”. Throughout his 12-year career in property management Chris worked his way up from Leasing Agent to District Property Manager, managing many large apartment communities around Reno/Sparks. Additionally, he has been buying and selling multi-family real estate personally as an investor since 2012, when he purchased his first 4-unit apartment building at the age of 26.
   More recently, at the beginning of 2026 Chris took over the role of DL Realty Broker.  At DL Realty Chris utilizes the combination of his extensive property management background coupled with his hands-on, real-world experience as an investor and Realtor to assist his clients with acquisitions and sales of investment property in the Reno/Sparks market.
   Beyond his ability to manage a purchase or sales transaction to a successful closing, Chris is well versed in more complex aspects of investment real estate such as property underwriting via income and expenses, the 1031 exchange process, installment sales, etc.
   As a native Nevadan born and raised in Reno, in his free time Chris naturally enjoys snowboarding/skiing, playing golf, camping, visiting Lake Tahoe, attending the many events held downtown, and everything else our beautiful region has to offer!
