If I can just get some kind of guidance on how to spot a good deal or perhaps negotiate one.

I set this one up starting at 5 units just because that’s been a sweet spot for me personally - if I’m looking at anything bigger, I’ll usually move over to a larger model I’ve been working on the past few months.This one’s really built around analyzing the income and income potential of each unit over time, and it’s flexible - you can scale the unit count up or down.

You're spot on—in this market, you absolutely have to be open to multiple financing opportunities to get a deal done.

For landlords, understanding how to respond to suspected mold and how to educate tenants about prevention is essential to protecting both your investment and your reputation.Avoid Using the Word “Mold” PrematurelyWhen a tenant reports dark spots or moisture issues, it’s important not to refer to the substance as “mold” unless it has been professionally tested and confirmed by a certified mold inspector or remediator.Until testing is complete, landlords should refer to the issue as “black stains,” “discoloration,” or “moisture-related staining.”

Jacksonville is a market with so much potential, and having that deep local connection gives you a real edge, especially when it comes to spotting value in distressed properties and small multifamily deals.It’s great to hear you’re passionate about both investing and helping others reach their goals.

having consistent income, reserves, and awareness of what went wrong before puts you in a great spot now.

Always great connecting with other North Georgia agents — and Ellijay’s an awesome spot for STRs.

I use emojis and business logos to mark the various spots. 

It’s in spotting where pricing has already corrected — just not publicly.Investors who adapt will find deals others are missing.P.S.

@Kevin CarpenterYou’re spot on with most of that — here’s how it breaks down:FHA and 20% down:Even if you put 20% down on an FHA loan, it still requires mortgage insurance (MIP)  there’s no way around it on the FHA side.
