Hi - I need a pro photographer to take pics of my mid-term rental rooms. Must be in the Atlanta area. If you are a realtor and have hired a great photographer, please drop your referrals. Thanks in advance!

Make sure you screen any PMC referrals BETTER than you would screen a tenant!

Thanks Michael. I agree with this guidance for a number of reasons but I'm curious as to your specific context/experience as to why you say that. Care to expound, share? 

Also, clarifying this is for LTR.

Any referrals?

Hey Folks - I'm looking to rent my primary residence, SFH, in Milton. For some reason (COVID) I have no current property management contacts. Please drop any folks/companies you know of. Specifically I'll be moving out of state so full service, long term rental peace of mind is the goal. TIA

I'm planning to relocate to Atlanta and am interested in finding an area that's right outside of the metro area with a couple of acres.  It should be easy to get to the metro area, close to at least one hospital and an area that is attractive to visitors. An area that is not quite up-and-coming, safe, but not maxed out in terms of opportunity to grow equity. What are some good areas that would be smart to look in?

Depending on how far/long you want to commute there are several options. Atlanta traffic is hell so it really depends on what hospital you are talking about. North of Atlanta you could look at Canton and Cumming. East of Atlanta look at Lawrenceville and Snellville, maybe Dacula because of a tech project that is breaking ground. Don't go south of Atlanta. West of Atlanta look at Douglasville area. 

 Thank you. I will look into these areas.

Dont wait, you can always buy more later, and it will never be the "perfect" time to start. Both Worcester and Fall River have great potential. If you need help with MLS postings feel free to reach out. Best of luck!

@Tandi H.

You've already gotten an answer. I'd also consider the additional income you can get from potential pet rent. Make sure you get a pet deposit to cover any pet damage.

The idea of using the next 1-2 years to plan marketing should apply in all scenarios. Make sure you get a great video tour and a good amount of photos so that you can market the unit with more ease (as a previous answer pointed out) when the time comes. Good luck!
