@Ethan Atkinson thank you for the insight my friend - I just shot you a DM! To answer your question, those leads were already listed. Strategizing on off market lead gen in the next few months in that area and would love to get your insight on that as well!

What is up BP Fam!

Situation: I am starting a job in a new location on Jan 10th, 2022. I'm tired of renting and finally have enough money saved for an FHA loan and am gonna use this opportunity to find a property. I'm moving to the North Atlanta suburbs from Central Kentucky and essentially have a month to close. This is going to be a challenge but were gonna give it the old college try.

Goal & Property Type: Rents in this area range from $800-1200 per bedroom per month and I am looking to have my out of pocket housing expenses to be less than $600 / mo in the best area that I can find with as little down as possible. This property NEEDS to be able to pay for itself when I move out and its fully rented. I am looking for properties that have equal full bathrooms per equal full bedroom. I.e 2/2+s, 3/3+s and so on. Town homes in this area are popping up everywhere in great locations as there are a ton of young professionals and college students around (most likely the #1 target). Small Multifamily are hard to come by because of the investor population, but I am absolutely looking at those as well. However, the 2-4 units in this neck of the woods are extremely hard to come by in good locations (from my experience).

Sourcing the Deal: I am looking on FB marketplace/Craigslist inquiring to investors, investor agents, and wholesalers being open and honest about my situation and precisely what I am looking for. I have already gotten 3 positive responses on properties in 45 minutes of beginning this quest!

Financing: I will use an FHA if necessary. I am primarily looking for properties that can be obtained via creative financing.

Join me on this journey as I snag my first deal - it will be fun!
