Buying one 200k or two 100k single family homes.

[Miles Robinson]

Hello all,

I am new to the bigger pockets site as well as real estate investing as a whole. I am currently living in Atlanta, Georgia and hope to buy my first single family home this winter. 

Atlanta seems to be a great place to purchase my first home due its rapidly growing economy.

My plan was to buy a single family house for around 200k, and them renting it out. However, I was wondering what you all thought about buying two 100k single family homes instead of one 200k home.

This was just a late night thought and I am very curious of your thoughts!
