@curt Smith, I'm going to do that soon!   Thanks!  

@kevin auyong and @daniel humpries, what burbs are hot on the south side?

Thanks, guys...  I'll keep that in mind.  I could do S. Atl, but I thought for my first deal it would be better to look closer to home. 

What about in the mountains, Elijah and Blue Ridge?  Are they tough to get good deals in now as well?  

I wish I HAD done this a while ago!

Hi, I'm totally new here. I'm researching markets in the Atlanta area to see where might be good to invest. I'm on the north side of town, but would be ok with anything north of there or down as far as Buckhead area. Any insights? What burbs do you find success in?  I'd be looking at buy-and-hold and possibly a couple of flips. Thanks for your input.

@Paul Sandhu  Wow, interesting.  I have not thought of that.  Not too far from me is a bunch of chicken processors.  That might be in line with the kind of thing you have going on there?

Thanks for the info, Sid.  I'll check out that book. 

I have a feeling that I might use a place like this for a year or two (until I have more properties or I get tired of hosting), at which point I'd just switch it to a long term rental.  So if the laws change in a couple of years, then meh.  It'll be ok. 

Do you know any keywords to search for in the city code for STR ordinances? I've been pouring over my town's code and can't find anything on it. I can call tomorrow, but was poking around tonight.

Hi, I'm totally new to the game, but would like to learn more about buying an investment property to be used as a short term rental. Does anyone know some good resources for learning that niche? This would not be in what is considered a vacation hot spot, probably more geared to a business traveler.

One specific question I have is how to research the city codes to make sure I'd be in compliance.  I'm thinking about along the 400N corridor, Sandy Springs/Roswell/Alpharetta area.  Does anyone have info on these areas specifically? 

Thanks in advance.
