McDonough GA investors?

[Chris Virgil-Stone]

I'm from Watertown, NY and looking to move down to the McDonough area this fall/winter with my wife and relocate with my job. I have a duplex that I rent now and am looking to sell as there aren't many if any reputable management companies around. I wasn't sure how the market is down there to invest. Seems like a lot of foreclosures, not many duplexs, a lot of apartment buildings. I'd say from my research the average rent for a 2/1 would be $650-800/mo? I would like to buy a duplex if the numbers work out, but am also looking to do a flip. Is there more opportunity for private funding there? I haven't had much luck where I am.

Thanks for any help!
