Hi from Georgia!

Hi Everyone!  I'm excited to be here and learning more about real estate investing.  I currently work full time in HR, am a licensed real estate agent in Georgia and South Carolina, and my husband and I hope to buy our first short term vacation rental property by end of the year.  We hope to have 3 properties in 3 - 5 years and may also consider mid-term rentals.

I love all the calculators, and LOVE the podcasts.  I've been listening to the podcasts for the last 2 months, and re-listen to them!  I learned some of the information during my training for my real estate license but it is hitting me differently now.  AND there is so much information that I am trying to absorb.  

We are currently looking at cabins in North Georgia, and considering beach condos in South Carolina.  We are staying focused on the numbers and not getting too emotionally attached to the properties.

A huge thank you to all those involved in the podcasts and the guests.  I'm learning so much!  Would love to connect with folks in the group!

Warmly,

Bien Nguyen

Hey Bien, welcome to BP! Be very careful when analyzing data in Blue Ridge area. More cabins than demand there. You have to have several amenities and a mountain view to compete at a high level there in my opinion. I personally just decided to stop looking at Blue Ridge for my next purchase for this reason. Hard to make the returns work when you are breaking the bank on the set up!
