If I were you I would join an Atlanta STR Facebook group and ask for suggestions from them, and ask them for examples.


Thank you for the suggestion! I'll definitely look into finding an Atlanta STR Facebook group and see if I can get some examples there. That said, I feel more comfortable engaging here, as the insights from this community have been really helpful and supportive.

I love Inhabit Media!!! He does all my airbnb and RE photography and travels! 


 Their website looks amazing.  Unfortunately, it appears they don't serve my area. :(
Thanks for the suggestion!

We're just about done getting our first STR ready for listing near McDonough,GA. We want to make sure we get professional photos to help our listing do well. Any recommendations on who I can reach out to? I really want to make sure we find someone who has experience in STR photography and not someone dabbling in it😏.
I’ve also see Airbnb offers this but seems like you have to have a listing available. Which is odd to me because that feels like putting the cart before the horse mentality. Unless I miss understood it. 
thanks for the help!

Thanks this is helpful. I spoke with the owner who said they got the property by doing a Right to Redemption foreclosure. Therefore could only do a quit claim deed transaction. Not sure of that process. 
I did end up passing on this but it’s good to learn and be more knowledgeable in the future to protect our investment but find opportunities. Thanks!

Greetings,
I'm a first-time investor working to go from 0-1 deals! I'm looking at a potential off market deal on FB marketplace. I'm unsure how to identify the property is ligament or fake post. I reached out to an individual selling a home for 45k, cash only. I like to do a BRRRR and flip it.

They are willing to give the lock box code after I have sent over a photo ID.  But claim they live 2 hours away and won't be present to show it.

If we want to move forward, then he will quit claim deed it over at the courthouse.  
Is this how it's normally done for off-market deals?  Any suggestions?

Thanks for your help!

Welcome @Chris Brown to BP! 

As you can tell already, there's great engagement on this platform whether the feedback is good or perhaps constructive criticism, it's to help you get better. Many people on BP really know their stuff and I'm humbled every time I read many of the posts. It's humbling and reminds me, I still have an awful lot to learn. But it's fun, nonetheless. I'm in and around the Atlanta area as well but doing most of my deals in the Augusta and Macon area, along with a few transactions out of State.

Hit me up if you need anything.

Cheers!


 HI Avrom,

Yes, that would great and definitely do so.  I appreciate it!

thanks!

Quote from @Michael Dumler:

@Chris Brown, it's great to see your interest in real estate investing! 

South Atlanta is a bit vague. South in-town Atlanta neighborhoods such as Oakland City, Sylvan Hills, and Adair Park vastly differ from I-285 south markets such as Riverdale, Forest Park, and Morrow. To further address, those markets differ from areas near the airport, such as East Point, College Park, and Hapeville. Which South Atlanta markets are you referring to? Moreover, what investment strategy are you looking to implement?  


 I'm located near McDonough.  I'm still fairly new to Atlanta.  So southern part of metro Atlanta down to Forsyth area.  Is the area I'm interested in investing.

Thanks!
