Welcome all. @Kay Dyer @Jacob Sanders @Rashida Sigmond. You can find an answer to any question here on BP. I am also a new Atlanta investor. Feel free to reach out with any questions. There is a REI meetup scheduled on 5/2/2018 in Peachtree city if anyone is located south of the city.

Hi Rebecca,

Welcome to Atlanta. I moved here from San Francisco a couple of years ago. I live around the east point area and would love to meet up for coffee when your schedule permits.

@Ruben Kanya thanks for putting this together. 

@Luke MacDonald and @Josh Engelhart thanks for the insight. 

@Jorge De Jesus That's  a good point, that I didn't think about. Thanks so much. 

@Wayne Brooks Thanks for the information. So, how do you calculate the FMV or come up with an offer price on potential deals?

Hello all, 

I am looking for my first deal and I have come across a few properties of interest. However, when I do a property search on the tax assessors website, many times the Fair Market Value listed by the county is much lower than the properties list price?  

My questions is, should I be using to Fair Market Value of the tax assessor as a starting point when making an offer? I'm curious to know how others determine the fair market value of a property. 

Best, 

Canesha  

@Dan Mahoney Thanks for the information. This was very helpful.  Do you happen to know any good real estate lawyers?
