It's a great way to get your living situation taken care of and a rental property bought with great, owner-occupied financing all at the same time.

If you can find a property that cash flows well in Atlanta now, I wouldn't worry too much about it being at the top of the market. Historically, rents haven't been as volatile as housing prices. So even if the value of your property takes a hit, as long as your rent can cover your expenses you'll be ok. 

I heard a saying once that went "The best time to buy real estate was yesterday, the second best time is today."
