Hello Bigger Pockets Community!
My name is Vince Momot, and I will be moving to Atlanta GA at the beginning of June. I first became interested in real estate from Graham Stephan and Meet Kevin on YouTube, then I read Brandon Turner's "The Book on Rental Property Investing" where he gave high praise to the BP website and its podcasts. Since then I have read more books and listened to over 100 podcasts and now I am ready to take action on my learning.
I want my first property to be a small multifamily house-hack most likely with some minor rehab needed. After the first property, I will invest in more long-term multifamily properties and after 10 years I will try and consolidate most of the properties with a 1031 into a larger multifamily complex with a property management team! If anyone has done something similar I would love to hear about it and any tips they might have. Thank you in advance for your welcoming community!

Thank you to everyone who responded and for the encouragement!
@Brenden Mitchum I moved to Atlanta to stay with my girlfriend who is an Architect, I have a degree in Aerospace and Atlanta provides a great variety of options for me on that front, it is just a coincidence that my investing strategy is MF. I plan to find off-market deals and am prepared to pursue SFR in the meantime if MFs are too rare. I appreciate your thoughtful response and would love to bounce some questions off of you from time to time, and possibly meet up with you when I make the move to your city!
@Bill Hampton Thank you for inviting me to your Investor Association, I hope to make lots of great connections in Atlanta!
