Thanks for the replies @Travis Sperr and @Jeff S. 

The reason I am trying to focus on this area is two fold:

 - Rather deal with higher rents and potentially less maintanece calls

 - It is were I live and would rather not travel so much in the brutal Atlanta traffic

Am I setting myself up for failure?

I am in the process of researching the feasibility of investing in a property management franchise.  The territory I am looking at is primarily an affluent area in the North Atlanta suburbs.

Is this a smart move to secure such a location or does it make sense to focus in more distressed territories?  Of course would prefer to engage in higher end, just trying to gauge if the demand will be there.  Are single family homes a target investment to buy and rent?

Thanks for any feedback,

Hello all,

My name is Anthony Gioia. I grew up on Long Island, NY.  Moved to South Florida after college where I started a family and lived for 15 years.  About 5 years ago my job brought me to Atlanta. 

I have been in Corporate America my entire career and  recently went through a restructure where my position was eliminated.  I decided not to go back to corporate and start my own business.  Over the years, I have been working part time managing a small volume of single family properties and decided to focus on this business full time.

Since I really can't afford to go an extended period of time without income as I ramp up my business, I am considering investing in a franchise where I can utilize proven methods that can support a business that can scale up in volume.

I would love to build some relationships in the industry and network locally in Atlanta as well.

I welcome any feedback on my plan mentioned above, the value you place on outsourcing this service, guidance on growing the business and anything else relevant to property management.

Wow.  Sorry, did not mean to write so much, just excited to join this group and move on with a new chapter in my life.

Have a great evening!!!

Anthony
