Hello Brice and James, I would love to speak with you as I'm interested in investing in multi-family properties in the Macon area as well. Thanks.

Investment Info:

Single-family residence wholesale investment.

Sale price: $78,000

This one was gutted and rehab started. Had nice curb appeal and in a part of town that is starting to gentrify

@Eric Blackwell was thinking the same thing, but am hesitating as my initial research doesn't show a ton of growth and seems it may be difficult to get stable tenants year after year. It's still on the list though, and would love to know if you decide to purchase there, what you find. I'll be starting to scout on the ground in a few weeks, to narrow down areas to buy.

@Eric Blackwell this might go back to "invest in what you know".  So I only invest in 2 areas of the country - even though other areas might be more "profitable" - because that's where my networks are.  One area is where I live, which is a very affordable and good rental market with a great network.  The other area is out of state.  In the out of state area, I already have an established network of people that I trust.  When investing from a distance you may never see your property.  You MUST have a trustworthy group of people in that scenario.  So go with the area that you know.  That's usually the best method.  Try posting in the Georgia state forum on Bigger Pockets.  They recently changed their forums a little but I think you can still find the state forums somewhere...maybe.

@Phillip Moses - Based off what you said you likely cannot make it but there is an event this Thursday 1/20/22 at 6:30pm EST hosted by FlipCo. Here is the link: https://www.biggerpockets.com/...

I am very interested in getting the Chattanooga REIA back up and active again as well.

Thank you Ryan! 

I've been doing BRRRR in Chattanooga for 5 years and have been through a few different PMs, bad contractors and subs, Title companies, and the whole works. I'd be happy to introduce you to my current rockstar team, and some wholesalers, and help you get off to a great start. Helping new investors get started is my passion :)
