Hey @Chandler L Cox! Welcome to BP! I'm not in the Hotlanta area, but as an agent and investor in general I would say that the two biggest obstacles I face are:
1. Reliable contractors.
2. Funding options that optimize Self-Employment AND low interest rates.
By far the quality, consistency, and honesty of contractors is the biggest barrier. You may have a good one or two in your line-up, build a great business with them, and then have to boot them and start the process afresh all within a 12-month window. Over and over again :(
