New member from Atlanta - Looking to start investing in rentals

[Toney Jones]

Hello BiggerPockets community! I recently moved to Atlanta, GA with my wife and kids and I am seeking first-hand knowledge on how to get started in single family housing real estate investing. I have no real estate investing experience but I find the subject extremely fascinating and viable in regards to creating greater financial independence. My goal is to aquire at least ten rental homes over the next 2-5 years and perhaps move into multi-family units sometime shortly after that.

I am eager to learn, as well as give back, and would be interested in hearing from the group on best practices for getting started in this market and investment vehicle.

Thank you,

Toney
