Getting Started - The First Move (Revised)

One of my past post explained that I want to go to Atlanta to start my investment process. I was going to live with my grandmother at first so I would have time to figure out the market before I actually buy a home. My grandmother has been telling me Real Estate in Atlanta is very tough and I recently watched a video saying Atlanta is in the sellers market right now with only 3 and a half months of supply so it would be VERY competitive.

I only suggested Atlanta because it’s cheaper than New York (i’m currently living), and I have family down there so i won’t be all alone. I’m guessing i’m investing in Atlanta out of fear of being by myself with no family and friends in a whole nother state, instead of investing where it actually makes sense. For example, Florida, Ohio, Texas, Colorado etc.

What are your thoughts and what do you guys suggest I do? I plan to make a move in September .. October the LATEST.
