Are you in the middle GA and Macon investor groups on FB?  If so, they're many good GC recommendations there.  I do all my own GC work and will help some out-of-state/area investors, but I focus on Warner Robins, Fort Valley and south Macon around Hartley Bridge...I stay away from the rough areas.

Hello Phillip, I'm not FB and don't know the value.  Can you tell me some street names that are considered rough areas?  Do you believe the new development will revitalize Macon?

Hey AnTuan, I used to invest heavily in the Macon/Warner Robins area. If you haven't already purchased your investment, I would suggest avoiding certain streets or areas that are known for high crime rates and generally have a sketchy reputation. It's a bit of a catch-22 since these areas often offer a large number of properties at remarkably low prices.

1. Emery Hwy/ Main St

2. Eisenhower Pkwy/ Bloomfield Rd

3. Houston Ave/ Lynmore Ave

4. Log Cabin Dr/ Hollingsworth

5. Ward St

6. Freedom Park

7. Payne

If you are considering purchasing properties close intown Macon, I recommend focusing on the following areas within the city that are reputable and present better investment opportunities.

1. Mercer University

2. Vineville

3. Ingleside

4. Riverside Dr. 

5. Jones Rd/ Skipper Rd (further south)

6. Walden (south west)

7. Lizella, Lizella East, Lizella North West
