Investing near an International Airport

Hey BP Nation, and especially Atlanta Investors, I just moved out to GA and I'm pretty much a newbie to Real Estate investing. I've been looking at some single family properties in and around the College Park area (Clayton county) and I have a question for you guys today. 1. What do you think about investing in properties 10-20 minutes from an airport like Hartsfield Jackson International ? Thanks in advance!

That's kind of a broad question. I'm intown and all of my properties are about 10-15 min. from the airport. There are many neighborhoods that fall into that category and they each have their own market, so, there's no one-size-fits-all

    Michaela G. Thanks for responding, I was referring to the riverdale area. But just airports in general, do renters see that as an advantage or a disadvantage ?

    probably those that work at the airport would like it or someone who travels a lot for business. But the later often have higher income that allows them to live in midtown or other less blue collar areas.

    A lot also depends on your exit strategy: are you planning on wholesaling? Buy and hold for rentals? Rehab and sell to landlords? Rehab and retail? Airbnb?

    Michaela G. I'm looking at the buy and hold strategy. Airbnb does not seem like a bad option, I would have to do some more research on that.
