Jake - call me tomorrow.  I hope my reputation is considered strong and I invest primarily in Chattanooga.  I also sell about 50+ properties a year there.  

I'd love to work with you. I'm one of the top agents by volume in the area and I only work with investors.

You absolutely much reach out to Brian Levredge of First Property Management. No one better in town and I've worked with most of them.

Robert,

Sounds like you're on the right track.  You've taken good steps toward widening your income and asset base.

Financing is less complicated than you think.  If you're looking at 1-4 unit properties, I would talk to Ryan Henn at Tennessee Valley Federal Credit Union on Market Street (you should be able to google his contact info).  They have a very good 15 year fixed program designed for investors of 1-4 unit properties with aggressive rates.  

You also have access to some nationwide programs, but they typically require a lot more money put into the deal than you have available.  These programs will extend out to 30 years fixed, but have other requirements and restrictions that may not work for you.  Talk to someone at Mortgage Investors Group on Shallowford for more information.

Another way to acquire properties is to team up with another investor.  I put investors together all the time.  Feel free to reach out if you have more questions about that type of project.

Keep saving and researching!

Moncy - I'll give you a shout on Monday. 

Message me. Just came across several off market properties in East Brainerd near the mall. I'm viewing them on Dec 7. Duplexes and triplexs. 

You will likely cash flow better than what you have in N. ATL. I've got 40+ doors.

Me. I work exclusively with investors and am in the top 10 for sales volume as a buyers agent.

Hey, I would love to connect with you but I'll be in Europe with my family unfortunately (or fortunately, but not for the meeting).  

I live in San Diego - not too far of a drive to meet somewhere in the middle.  I'm also the top volume buyer's agent in Chattanooga this year for investment properties (* with 2 or more sales, yes, there's a guy that sold 1 property worth more than everything I've sold this year).  After living in Chattanooga for a couple of years and flipping and owning property, I've been able to build a great network in town.  

Oh yeah, I have worked with four other companies and have been working with Brian for about three years now.
