Hi!  I'm currently selling my rental property in Alaska in order to purchase investment property here in Atlanta.  I inherited my home in Alaska in 2011 and have been renting it ever since.  While living in Atlanta, though, I've come to love the area and I see it only getting better every year.

I'm aiming to get one or two units in a transitioning area (I'll have ~$65k to spend, and am focusing on SW/NW/SE areas) with the ultimate goal of building a portfolio of my own here in town.  I'd like to rent so that my units are helping to stabilize a community (i.e., don't want to sit on land or vacancies while waiting for the market to turn)--I'm also open to renting low-income/Section 8/Housing Choice Vouchers.  I'm looking for advice, deals, mentoring, opportunities.  I don't have a ton of cash to invest, I don't know that I'll have this kind of lump of cash again, and I really want to get this right.  Bigger Pockets has come up over and over again as I've read online, and I'm excited to join this community.
