@Ryshawn Cousar I’m in north Atlanta and Blue Ridge. Buy a short term rental in blue ridge with 10% down or move into a single family home in Forsyth county area (healthy growing area).

Or do both! You could rent out your current mobile home, get into a new single family home for low down and then use the other cash for a short term rental.

Let me know if I can help!

@Alex Smith I’ve had a great experience with apartments.com! Once you get it set up it’s pretty smooth. Only complaint is the lag time between rent being paid and received

@Joanne Tsai I’m in north Georgia / Blue Ridge area and I do not see a significant softening in the market. Still very much a hot seller’s market with perhaps a slight increase in inventory or days on market

@Bryan Stocklas in most states, if you’re within your financing contingency deadline, you should be able to get a loan denial letter from your lender and you shouldn’t have any issues.

@Amy Raye Rogers short term rentals in the southeastern United States

Check out short term rentals as a way to scale (10% down second home loans). My family and I have several in the southeast (Blue Ridge, GA, Smoky's, TN, and Miramar Beach, FL). I operate in Blue Ridge, GA as an agent and am seeing clients deploy capital on multiple properties through various financing strategies!

I'd say look at the southeast. My family and I have properties in Georgia, Tennessee, and Florida and the cashflow is excellent in all 3 markets. I live and operate as an agent for investors in North Georgia (Blue Ridge) and am seeing it get more and more competitive here because of how desirable it is.

Hey Gerald! Congrats on jumping in to STRs. I live and operate as an agent in north Georgia. My family and I have several short term rentals in Blue Ridge, Smoky Mountains TN, and Miramar Beach. All fantastic markets with different strengths. You're right in targeting the southeast. The numbers are fantastic.

Feel free to connect with me if you'd like more insight into Blue Ridge. I personally believe that it still has the most available margin to capture vs. the other two markets I'm in. It's getting hotter and more competitive though!
