Any investors in Union City or East Point Georgia?

[Trey Bonner]

Hi, my wife and I are long term buy and hold investors. We purchased our first investment property (SFH) in the Grove Park Atlanta neighborhood earlier this year. Using the "stack" strategy, we are now looking for a duplex in 2021. Our target neighborhood is East Point, GA but the prices are a little outside of our budget. While continuing to watch East Point, I stumbled on Union City, GA which is less than a 30 min SW of Hartsfield Jackson airport. I am not overly familiar with the area and was hoping the BP community had insights.

A few questions: 

- Is anyone currently investing in Union City, GA, if so, do you have any thoughts on the: (1) market projections for the next 5 yrs (understanding that COVID is a wildcard); (2) current/future development both public and private; (3) current/projected industry in the area. 

-  I am also open to any general thoughts about East Point as a target neighborhood to invest in small multi-families.
