Fantastic summary, Dan Mahoney I am a real estate lawyer and tax deeds just happen to be my area of expertise, and I can say your info is spot on.Have any of you purchased Georgia tax deeds?

When he said that wouldn’t work I felt like selling all 5 of my rentals on the spot!      

I think this post is spot on.

I spent 25 years at my laptop, so I'm looking to do something more hands-on.An idea that hits the sweet spot—it's more hands-on, it's related to my interests, I can use my previous experience—is to start a business helping Raleigh-area MTR (and possibly STR) owners set up their rentals.

I predict this will end in a financial blood bath. 

The insurance company was pretty reasonable to work things out with even though it did not start out that way, and they did have my blood pressure up considerably!

I just don't know where that stops or where that ceiling stops, but because it's still so new, there's probably going to be a lot of money moving into that area as a new vacation spot. 

I'm the Johnny on the spot guy if there is any small inconvenience come up for my guests. 

Midwest sounds like the spot to be.

My investments in Wisconsin this year have been a bright spot, with that said I don't think it persists.
