Well done with that first deal! Our area should definitely appreciate with the new Braves stadium and all. Keep it up!

I just had a closing at Raimondi & Associates. They have an office off the Wade Green exit on 75. They do a good job.

I slightly disagree with Stan. It's really difficult to find good investment properties in Smyrna, Marietta and Kennesaw, true. But there are occasionally good deals in the smaller cities like Powder Springs, Mableton and Austell.

Mableton, Powder Springs, and Austell definitely have a lot more potential than Smyrna when it comes to flipping. You can get nice cash flow returns in any of the cities in Cobb though. If you ever need any help, feel free to reach out! I live in Austell and own a business in Smyrna!

Hey Jason, I go after the same type of properties. I can send you some listings to go through.

Pinnacle Properties Atlanta. Trust me. 

In addition to the above, you can also find good deals in nearby cities such as Lithia Springs and Powder Springs. I live in Austell, so if you ever need help just give me a shout!

I looked at that one online, but not in person. They would have to come waaayyyyyy down in price for me to be willing to tackle that monster. 0% occupancy in an iffy area AND a ton of reno is needed? No sir...

Nice job. I have investment property in Columbus as well. As long as you are down there or have great property management, C-Town is great for buy and hold. There's no appreciation down there though. Lol I grew up there.

You definitely need to have a good home inspector check it out. In general you should have a couple in your network. I know a great one. PM me and I'll send the details...
