Also, if you find something near the hospital / Mercer, look into room rentals. You can really maximize your cashflow that way. I have a lot of clients doing that and it's working out well for them.

Hey all, it's been awhile since I posted here but I am still working on my GC license.  I was under the assumption that I needed much more hands on experience but have since been told that the 6 years I owned a GC company would qualify.  Soo... I'm throwing this out here that I'm going to apply and get my license within the next six months.  I'd love to connect with anyone who is interested in flipping houses in the north Atlanta metro area.  I'm located in Woodstock but will consider other areas for the right job.  Thanks!

 Looking for a GC for my project in Macon, GA. Wondering if you still are a contractor? If not, do you know anyone? Thanks

 Hey Evarist, I'm a Realtor here in Macon and have a GC that I can recommend to you. I know of several other (non-GC) folks I can send you if you'd like. My contact info is on my page so you can shoot me a text if you'd like. 

Erik, there are a ton of deals down here in Macon, GA in that price range. I work with mostly out of state investors (One of my clients is in New Jersey) so I can give you a hand if you’re interested in looking down here. 

There are lenders in your area who can lend here in Georgia but I have some good, investor friendly, bankers down here is well.

Hi Cody- happy you connected with me. 
I’m really looking for a good income. Something that I can profit say $30-50k. Would like to be able to 2 or 3 flips this year. Is that possible?

I also could really use a mentor if you know of anyone. I do architectural drafting and interior design if I can be of assistance to anyone in return.

Thanks!

Of course you can make that kind of money but it really depends on how much money and time you want to put into the project. In October I sold a house to an out of town investor for about $50k. They put about $60k into it and we are about to list it for $150k, so they’ll have a decent profit when it’s all said and done. 

Keep in mind this investor has a partner here in Macon who also oversees the construction projects. I’m sure they have some sort of deal where the profits are either split or rolled into the next project. 

So, yes there is money to be made flipping homes down here, but it takes some work and knowledge to do it right.

@Michael Dumler Thank you! I think that is where I’m struggling…picking a market. I’m in the Cumming area, so I’m most familiar with it. But prices are very high. North Ga the same. If I’m looking for off-market deals, how do I go about that?

I actually used to live in Cumming and my wife grew up there. HA! Small world. I've got a stack of off market deals and work with a few flippers. There is money to made here, for sure. I'm not allowed to post my phone number on the forum, but it's in my profile. Feel free to reach out if you'd like to discuss Macon further. If there was a time you wanted to come down I could give you the lay of the land.
