I live here. I bought my first rental and put my primary for rent. It is not cash flowing. I looked for 6 months. It will be hard to find 2500 a month. The high end areas bring 2k+ but will continue to rise. Cash flow is tough from my little experience in this area. You can find thing that need work then good luck finding a contractor to do the work at a reasonable price I would try Athens its growing at rapid pace also

Good luck in your journey.

Hello,

I’ve had several deals fall through for various reasons. I haven’t found a realtor that is investor friendly. Anyone know a realtor in N Alabama or south Tennessee to help


 Try the agent finder feature on the BP website


 Yeah I have and haven’t had much luck with that. That’s why I made a post

I agree with the FHA loan for 3.5%. This will leave you enough to live there for a year then buy another the following year. I wouldn't use your dad unless you absolutely had to.

Quote from @Craig Teller:

As a seasoned investor who has primarily operated within my local area (South Florida), I am now venturing beyond my backyard eager to diversify my single-family portfolio. I am interested in the Southeast region, specifically targeting areas in Georgia, North Carolina, South Carolina, and Alabama. My focus is on properties in the affordable range of 75k-150k. Seeking valuable advice on cities within these states that show promising potential for growth. Your insights and recommendations would be greatly appreciated as I explore opportunities beyond my familiar territory.  Thanks in advance. 

Shelby, Madison, Baldwin, Limestone and Tuscaloosa are the highest growth areas right now. There are some key zip codes in the Birmingham area that are worth looking at as well. Be glad to discuss further.
I live in Limestone county. What most of said here is true. Limestone and Madison will be tough to get into for that price( in my experience). I was interested in Tuscaloosa seems good with The University of Al

^^ it’s definitely not as easy as people make it sound. It’s hard finding deal especially in this market. I’m new and trying to stay local and it’s been tough
