We invest primarily in the northwest suburbs (Marietta, Kennesaw, Woodstock) and have done a few flips in Snellville. You should have no problem renting a SFH for $1,350+/month in these areas if they are clean and renovated with decent rental quality finishes. We have found that we do much better with finding deals off-market as these are very popular areas that many investors target and oftentimes the numbers don't work with listed properties. I think that may improve in the next 6-12 months as we see the market shift some. However, if you are planning to put 25-35% down you should have no problems cashflowing well either way.

@Michelle S. In GA a termite bond is highly adviseable.  If you don’t protect the property, you are almost guaranteed to get termites at some point and they can easily do thousands in damage if untreated.  I have a sentricon system on all of our properties and it runs $240-$275/yr per property.
