@John Rutledge, great thanks for letting me know. I will definitely reach out and tell Todd you sent me.

@Ali Boone, that would be great if you're happy to share names. I'd also love to know more about your story investing in Atlanta from California (I'm in the Bay Area, but an Atlanta native).

@Rush Wall, I sent you a request to connect so we can discuss further.

You're all so helpful!

@Adam Abdel-Hafez Fair enough. I work for a GC now and now the biz pretty well, so I get how it is. Do you want me to tell Citiside you referred me when I reach out to them? Maybe we will be working together in the future.

@Adam Abdel-Hafez thanks for the recommendation. What sort of work do you do for them? It's rare to get to talk to the contractors PMs use, so would be great to know how they treat you, pay you, etc. if you're comfortable answering those questions.

Hi John, thanks for responding. Do you know if any of these managers handle Section 8 properties? In my experience cold calling a lot of these companies, most of them do not. I don't want to waste anybody's time. If you know anybody who for sure does, please let me know.

On another note, do you happen to have any MFPs in Atlanta that are for sale?

Hi Yall,

I own a few rental properties around Atlanta, and I've been having a lot of trouble finding a good property manager for one house because it happens to be Section 8 voucher housing. I'm wondering if anyone here knows a manager who won't discriminate based on that fact alone.

This particular unit is a SFH in West End. I've had a stable tenant there for a while, have never had an issue with payment or anything else. Actually probably my best tenant of all my properties. My current manager does an OK job, but really where they fall short is in the record keeping and communication. A new manager would be coming into a very low-touch situation, and also stand to gain a lot of business as I expand my holdings.

Please let me know if anyone has any recommendations.

Thanks!

I'm a bit late to the party here, but is there any way to be included on announcements of future meetups?

Post: Value of a Masters in Real Estate Development

I'm wondering if anyone has first-hand experience with Masters in Real Estate Development (MRED) programs and could speak to their value.

A bit about me: I am 27 years old and own two rentals (single family) in Atlanta. I currently work full time in another field, but my long-term goal is to create my own business doing buy-and-hold, construction / renovation, and land development. I may try to get my GC and real estate license. Because of my desire to learn about construction and contracting, as well as the business side of real estate, I thought these types of programs might be a good idea. I have some work experience in commercial / retail construction management.

Looking forward to your thoughts.
