Since when has Atlanta been HOT?
Many of the metropolitan areas in Texas are doing well, no question, but what is making Atlanta such a hot area for investment right now. Is there ample opportunity for cash flow investment? I don't remember Atlanta being on the radar quite so much until more recently.
I might have to consider investing out of state since the DFW investment market is drying up.

The cost to living ratio Is good here versus income. Basically you can get a decent wage and a house here and the cost isn't outrageous like some other states are.
We have a lot of economic drivers here and give credits and other things for businesses to move here. I know other states do as well but Georgia goes over the top in some instances.
