I have  a few clients who own and manage their own rentals and are having difficulty in opening a true escrow account.  

Is there anybody who is currently having success OR experiencing difficulties in present time in the Macon, GA area?

I would consider it if the stays were a week or longer, but in my experience the difficulty of cleaning does not drastically go up after a few days, it is still the same work.

I find 6 and 12 no problem it’s the 3 month I’m having difficulty finding.  

OPM is a great option but again (as we all did starting out) will have difficulty gaining trust of other investors at your age and experience level. 

How difficult is it to get commercial under contract?

The difficulties are those with verbal lease or dated lease.

Most partnerships will have issues at some point (and often that point is sooner than you'd think), and if starting a real estate investing business isn't hard enough, adding in the extra difficulty of working with a partner will only make it tougher.Many new investors think, "I need someone to keep me motivated and accountable." 

A lot of apprehension and financial difficulty in purchasing in that area + East Downtown (inside the beltline) given the current demographics and economics.

I am having difficulty in my market even acquiring good BRRRR candidates because after the finance, they are cash flow negative.
