What are the top places to invest for long term appreciation

[Vijayanandh S.]

If you were to invest today and not sell it ever, which locality in / around Atlanta would you buy a property and why.   Assuming, 

your budget is around 250-350k

not looking at immediate cash flow, but not a lot of negative cash flow either assuming 20% down - but solid long term appreciation 

very easy to find a quality tenant

if needed, you can move in yourself

I think the West Side belt line neighborhoods have a higher upside, but are less of a sure thing. Even though prices are high right now, I would bet on Reynoldstown, Grant Park, East Atlanta, etc. being safer bets in terms of long term appreciation even if you won't see as high returns as you might in Adair Park, etc. When the proverbial **** hits the fan, which areas are going to get hit first and which ones are going to benefit from lower prices?
