However, depending on your answer a GC might be required.

As for work in the area,  many people could commute to ATL for work, but I'd look at what industries are more specifically there, Palmetto, Union City, etc.As for the numbers, it depends on who you ask.

Adriane Gasperetti it would depend on your budget and the type of property you are looking for.

Successfully taking these loans and repaying them will improve either score depending on which one you choose. 

. - The financing depends if you are going with traditional (fannie mae backed) non owner occupied financing or portfolio/commercial financing.

You were right, luxury condos go for a median price of 220k and higher depending on amenities.

If you choose to "House Hack": with your partner, get an FHA203k (3.5% down payment, with renovation money included), ask for the maximum amount of "seller concessions" (state depending) and purchase the property.

Of course this could go up or down, depending on your board of realtors fees and if you decide to purchase leads, etc.  

Sometimes I do complete tear downs and rebuilds and other times I do gut renovations and/or additions (depending on what the situation calls for).
