Newbie from Thomaston, GA

[David Levitt]

Hey Everyone,

I first want to thank everyone at biggerpockets for providing helpful and honest insights into REI. In college I worked for a property management company doing maintenance. I loved it and always wanted to have properties of my own. I currently work in full-time ministry in Thomaston, GA but my family is growing (fourth baby on the way) and my wife and I would like to have more. As you know more kids means more money. I would like to begin investing in buy and hold rentals with the hope that as my kids get older and we have more of them I will be able to supplement my income to provide for them and help them get started with their future when the time comes. Thomaston is a small old mill town of 10,000 with lots of older mill homes. The stats that I saw showed that almost half of this town rents, and most of those are SFR. Also renting out in the county is popular too and often times more profitable. I would love, love, love to hear from anyone in the area. Thanks again to everyone for the valuable input and I am happy to be a part.
