First House Hack in Atlanta, Georgia

[Walker Meadows]

Like many others here, I caught the real estate bug ~5 months ago after reading Rich Dad Poor Dad. After listening to countless podcasts, reading tons of books, and spending ~1 month analyzing deals, I feel like I'm ready to make my first move. I've owned a home (3/1 ranch) in Decatur, GA for 1 year now. My goal is to rent my current home out and house hack a small multifamily (quad or less) in Atlanta, GA.

I've been working with a real estate agent to establish FMLS searches, etc., but the Atlanta market is one fire right now. I'm looking to find a value-add deal where I can largely subsidize my living expenses with my tenant's rent.

Any ideas on how to find deals outside of a real estate agent/FMLS, specifically in the Atlanta market?
