Does anyone have any experience and/or direction into the "air Bnb" experience or rental property in Cobb county? I'm thinking of purchasing a home with the idea of offsetting the mortgage and holding cost in leasing and Air BNB type of arrangements in the vinings, Cumberland Smyrna area. Stadium will be new here.

I am a recently educated real estate investor and “newbie” in the industry, located in the greater Atlanta GA market.I have already begun the journey of investing in my education in the field through coaching, mentorship, online research, books, etc.I am now ready to take the next step to ACTION and try to get that first deal under my belt.Nervous, YES!But I am even more excited to reach my goals.

I am hoping to close my first house hacking deal in the Spring of 2017.I currently work full time as a Client Services Account Manager for a Health Insurance company.I enjoy the security and responsibility of my FT job but I also look forward to accomplishing my goals of supplementing my income, setting up a long term "retirement" plan, creating a legacy and ownership for my children and the overall accomplishment of OWNERSHIP.I look forward to using REI as a vehicle to get there.

I am very excited to “learn the ropes” and hopefully partner with other seasoned investors in an effort to grow in the business.My initial goal is to establish about $500/month from income properties and to accumulate $100K in cash to start, within the next 2 years.Lofty but doable…

I would like to use the “buy, rehab, rent and refinance” as my primary strategy.I would also like to identify a mix of wholesale and fix and flip deals along the way.

I have been looking through the forums and posting some questions myself and I would just like to say thank you to everyone!You are all so helpful and having BP as a resource as I begin this journey is invaluable.I look forward to both learning and sharing with you all as we push towards our goals.

Salute

Can anyone give me just a rough estimate on the cost of building a new home 3/2 approx 700-1000 sq ft? Just looking to gauge and set a baseline and work from there.
