Just getting started from Atlanta, GA (Old Fourth Ward)

Hello all! I'm originally from Murfreesboro, TN (I wonder who's knows where that is... ). I've called Atlanta home for the last 6 years where I currently work in the digital advertising industry.

I have grown more and more interested in real estate investing over the past year and I'm finally at the point where I'm ready (and able) to pull the trigger on my first property. I'm interested in buy and hold investing, and hoping that multifamily properties will be an area of focus for me. We'll see how that goes!

I have lots of questions about REO's, house-hacking, rehabbing, deal analysis, where to buy, how to spot deals and move on them quickly etc, etc, etc... I'm pretty much a sponge at this point.

Well, thanks for reading and I hope to start interacting with the community. 

Best,

Stephen Watkins

    Hi Stephen...

    I started my investing career in Atlanta too and did very well with investing there. Send me your phone number via email to [email protected] and I'll give you the 411.

    Good luck to you...great city...lots of opportunity!
