@KaSaundra Johnson

I go to the meet up at the ivy Buckhead every last Tuesday of the month , you can also see the recorded video of the meet up on utube at Atlanta rei meetup . It’s free & has lots of real estate people that do everything in real estate with tons of experience.

@Ortavia Allen

Welcome to bp . There is a meetup in Buckhead every last Tuesday of the month. It’s really valuable, free and you’ll be able to network with many people in all of your RE needs. You can also check it out on utube at Atlanta rei meetup to give you a better ideal of what it is like .

@Todd Powell

I’m a new investor

I own my own trucking business, Things were good with the trucking thing I got alittle too successful & tried to grow too fast , and fell on my face, but I’ve learned from that process once I can into my first RE deal I will take the lessons I learned and move strategically in a smart savvy direction.

My freedom number is $5000 / month passive .

I don’t know what’s enough, to be honest it’s never enough 😝

I would like to be able to live anywhere I want, drive whatever I want , give to whoever I want

so I would like to have as much as God feels I can handle.

Just wondering how the townhome / condo investing is in the Atlanta area ... I don’t hear much about them so I figure I would ask ? I know the HOa on those things can break a deal.

I’m trying to get sharper at trying to understand & read the market. I know there is no perfect way or any  guarantees but I would like to find ways to know what to look for , how to not get caught behind...someone told me to check the book shift out, is there any other books that anyone recommends for this type of things ?

I heard that podcast about does mistakes exist, very good content lol but your right it does sound like a build up to something , I had no clue about the Morris invest fraud stuff , until I saw something on bp , then I went to watch the podcast episode 151 I think and it’s not on here anymore the show notes are but not the actually podcast , .....was there ever a time when Morris invest was legit and was doing things the right Way or  was it always a scam ?

So I’m wondering how long does it take to refinance a home you paid cash for, renovated, have tenant in place, how long does it usually take to get a refinance done ? 

( I'm in the process of reading the BRRRR book btw)
