Recently immigrated from South Africa to Canada, but moving to Atlanta in 9 to 12 months.

If there’s a strong job market and influx of immigration

However, I expect it to continue growing in the long term due to a multitude of factors like increase immigration from South America and national migration especially from the NY/NJ area.

Like many immigrants, we moved to hopefully live a better and safer life compared to our home country.Starting a new life in a new country was definitely not easy, and required a lot of sacrifices from my parents.

Immigrants that barely speak the language move here with $9 in their pocket and manage to make a good life for themselves, often above average within one generation.

.- ADU will bring 10 times of annual rent to appraisal.And ADUs tend to bring 50k or less than their cost to build.I spoke with my realtor and he suggests building as many units as possible, but he is even older than me and:- too conservative- believes that all immigrants live in compounds, multi-generations families ratio will increase- construction still costs a dime and nickel if you hire unlicensed guys and do owner-builders permits- he rocks in East Bay Area and is not very familiar with LA.Regarding conservative rents: the lot is almost 7000 sf, tons of street and off-street paved parking, but the property is located in not the best area of Covina.

My parents are hard working immigrants who moved to the US decades ago and have worked tirelessly to build something to feed our family.

My thought is to deliver a Letter of Interest to purchase, to the solicitor who is handling the application. 

Not to get off topic, but I noticed that whenever judges stand up for the poor, working poor, women, people of color, immigrants, or religious minorities, they are always called activist judges. 

We did not get involved in Real Estate as soon as we thought, it was especially tough with no network, no family or friends, not to mention immigration challenges preventing my wife from legally working for almost an entire year.Thankfully we persevered and in the end, both my wife and I have landed some lucrative tech sales roles over the 5 years we've been here, beginning in Florida and now settled in New York City (I know, I know, who would pay so much to live here!?).
