New investor in the Metro Atlanta Area
My wife and I recently joined BP and just wanted to say hi to the community! We finally have our first rental property in the Metro area (got some great DIY experiences). We would love to learn from others about investing in Atlanta and hopefully find some partners that complement our skillset.
Hi @Quan Chen, welcome to BP! My wife and I are new to REI in Atlanta as well. Let me know if there's anything I can help you with. There's a great meetup the last Tuesday of every month for BP members in Atlanta. Hope to see you around.
Hi @Adam Meadows, thanks for the info. I'll definitely add that to the calendar. I look forward to meeting you guys and to share our experiences.
Hey Quan, welcome to BP! Another good meetup is the BiggerPockets' North Georgia hosted by Jered Sturm, the last Thursday of every month. Maybe I'll see you there on the 28th!

Hey Caleb, how healthy/active is the group and are you looking for new members? I am Georgia born and raised and interested in investing in the Cartersville/Bartow area but have a lot of learning to do before jumping in. If you have any sort of live stream of the meetings (doubtful) I would love to attend. Seeing as to how I no longer live in GA this is really my only option for a meet and greet until the holiday periods. Thanks for taking the time to read and share. And enjoy your weekend!

@Will Wiggins That's a good question, I'm not sure about live streaming. If I find out I'll let you know, otherwise here is the link to the page! It is both active and healthy, I attended the August meeting and the conference room was full! A majority of the group were also just getting started and looking for a place to learn and grow and connect with others. Would be a good fit for you, hope live streaming works, although you only get the knowledge through that avenue and you miss out on the networking. If you are in NC now, why not look into some groups/meetups up there? Give me a call any time!
Oops! Two things: I forgot the link, and it is actually the last Tuesday of each month, not Thursday. Here ya go! Monthly Northern Georgia Meetup
Thanks brother. I'm transient right now and don't plan to invest in NC or I'd look it up. Thanks for the quick reply and I'll be sure to check out the website today. Perhaps I'll see you at a meeting sometime!

Thanks @Caleb Griffin. I'll definitely go. I believe it's the same meetup that Adam mentioned.
Welcome @Quan Chen to Bigger Pockets. If you ever look into the Augusta, GA market let me know as that is where my brother and myself are at.
@Quan Chen Congratulations!! Good Luck on your REI journey!
Thanks @Susanna B. We're currently focusing on properties closer to home since we're just starting out. Once we get more experience under our belts, I will definitely keep you in mind. @Aziz Raji Thanks! you too.
