Inheriting out of state need help

[Preston Goodman]

Hello, I have been reading and doing research for several months I didn't think I was ready yet but a rental property has fallen in my lap.  A family member died leaving me his acreage and older mobile home in Tallapoosa, GA its in between Atlanta and Birmingham, AL.  His funeral was the only time I have ever been to the area nor do I know anyone else in the area. I am looking to connect with someone who can tell me about the area.  The lot has 2 run down residences 1 of which has an existing tenant. I mainly just want to know about the area so that I can make a educated decision on the property once the probate situation is complete. Thanks in advance.
