That was the right move for us at the time, but let me tell you, boy oh boy does it hurt every time I realize i sold a 3 bed 2.5bath home in dublin schools that I bought for under $200K...its the one that got away and honestly will haunt me forever...or until i go back and get it again...but seriously find a way to keep that thing fo the long term especially with that rate. 

People wholesale on market deals all the time.. especially if it's significantly under asking price. 

Market rents in this area for those size units are closer to $1,100 (a little more, actually).Previous owners owned these spaces for a very long time, so their taxes were low and those rents were manageable for them.

Gwinnett is not City of Atlanta in terms of permit issues but let me check with my contacts to confirm length of time for permits typically.

Momentum builds over time, and I promise things will start falling into place.This year, I’m expanding into Columbus, Ohio!

It takes time to identify these properties  and often requires physical observation, not merely sitting behind a computer scanning through property listings, but they are out there.

Being 19 you have plenty of time.

When a lease ends they’ll suggest new rents and if the tenant hold be offered a renewal. some will offer to transfer utilities for you when it goes vacant, all should handle the transfer when a tenant moves in  With 10 properties I don’t “talk” to my PM more than 2-3 times a year.

@Kevin Duke Since Subject A’s $6M net worth is below the federal estate tax exemption ($13.61M in 2024) and Florida has no estate or inheritance tax, Subject B can inherit the property tax-free with a step-up in basis to the fair market value at the time of death, eliminating capital gains tax if sold immediately.To avoid probate, Subject A can use a Lady Bird Deed (Enhanced Life Estate Deed) or a Transfer on Death (TOD) Deed, which allows automatic transfer to Subject B while retaining full control during their lifetime.

And using the process buy a new property or properties that you also intend to hold for investment use.The issue for you might be that you purchased this property with the primary intent of selling.
