new member in Atlanta Metro
I have just started intense study of real estate and am in the middle of taking 3 real estate/business classes while working full time. I am currently an L1 certified ASE master technician and originally was looking to supplement my income but the more I learn the more I see that working on cars will be merely a hobby in the near future!!! I LOVE this real estate stuff!!
I am the father of 12, soon to be 13, awesome children and look forward to teaching them the advantages of investing in real estate as I become more experienced. Oh, that's not a typo, 13 kids is right! And please dont ask me if I know what causes that, I WILL tell you, and yes I am clearly insane.
Thanks, TJ McKenzie
Welcome to the forum TJ McKenzie!
What about RE interests you? Rehabbing? Buy and Holds? I'm in Atlanta as well, just beginning. 13 Kids, though? Guess you've found your contractors! (joking)
Welcome TJ McKenzie Master tech... sounds like an idea rehab guy! Best to you - don't loose that excitement.
Welcome TJ...
I'm in Cobb County as well...
I am looking at flips and mainly cosmetic rehabs. I want to get a few deals under my belt before I hold anything. Looking for lump sums initially. I live in Marietta and work down in Buckhead. Just joined GAREIA and went with their fast track program.
Hi TJ -- welcome to BP! Great community here. I'm not sure I really want to know how you got 13 kids but congratulations!! ;-)
I love the Atlanta metro market. Been investing and selling property there for many years. You will do well there!
Continued success!
Welcome aboard!
I actually sell cars at auction, and looking to do RE deals as well, so we should definitely talk! PM me!
Welcome Tj,
I live on the West Coast but I invest in your area too.
With 13 sets of eyes and ears, you got a lot of built in bird dogs working for you. Welcome again and enjoy this site
LOL. Yes, lots of bird doggin power
to be sure. Anyone here GAREIA members?
Welcome TJ, you will find lots of good resources on this site.
I am in Cobb County along with you and JScott....
welcome TJ!
I am in the Norcross area myself, and just starting out as well. I haven't looked into the GAREIA yet, as honestly, I didn't know it existed :/. That and my 2 rentals are in NC. I am almost afraid to look at houses on this side of ATL. All I really see are alot of empty buildings for lease.
Welcome TJ
