Currently, my largest hurdle/hold up is depleting my cash reserves to purchase land for development.

The largest such investor in Fulton County is Vesta Holdings, but there are a few other firms that do this.

Hi Folks,Following up on this as I have a 5 bedroom house, single story w/ 6th (and largest) bedroom that can be office for staff.

When looking for a SFH there's several factors to contribute to a great rental rate: Location, Condition, Time of Year, Functionality, City Cert requirements needed (if applicable).I absolutely wish that I could 'Turn back the clock' and do house hacking and jump into real estate investing that way...so many great benefits!

You're in the best place to connect with people in and around your target market.I recommend 3 things:1. use the 'search' function to find topics, members and areas of interest .

Lifestyles doesn't buy any properties so investor returns are a function of the investment.

Redid landscaping, painted interior, added a functional closet in hallway.

I would also qualify it on no damages that exceed the security deposit.Hopefully you have detailed pictures before renting, and is a good reason for regular inspections to check that HVAC and other equipment is functioning properly, and allows inspection for damage from leaking roofs, etc., as well as tenant damage.

They were old but functional. thanks for all thoughts. 

Fitchburg is not the largest of markets but still remains an ideal location to invest in due to the amount of rent vs the price of properties.
