@Guy Pierre Welcome to investing and I personally think that real estate is the best way to reach ones goals for success. I read above that you want to get into some buy & holds and that you are reading books; ALL great ideas. You also mention some of the areas I live and invest which is middle GA (Macon & Warner Robins), but may I add that you put a wide net area from McDonough to Warner Robins because that is a good drive. Also may I add, to please look for your local REI meetups as you go on your quest to learn. They are normally once or twice a month and here you will find local investors who are seasoned and full of advice. Please take a listen to some of the BP podcasts to learn as well, they helped me and still are. These people you meet, and in the podcast, will help you zone in on what kind of buy & hold properties you want to invest in; Ex. some investors like "C" class or only "B" class properties I've learned over time. Some look at the area and feel that Section 8 is the best ROI for what they have to invest based on some factors. Once you find your niche Guy just RUN with it! Don't let anyone stop you and/or sway you because they won't do it. Look man there are plenty of deals out here for all of us and like you already read, plenty of us in BP who are still learning and willing to help/share what we've learned so far. Wishing you the best Guy, and continue to do one step at a time until your reach your goals.
