Despite this, I'm a bit ahead of the curve and am looking for guidance as to where to go next.Currently, I work for a luxury brokerage out of San Diego as an assistant to a top producer providing marketing and management of all digital platforms; I received this opportunity through DMing multiple agents on Instagram hoping to get a job after my return from a study abroad as a way to learn about real estate.

You'll need to know these things before you contact an agent, so they know what to look for.I'd start by identifying your buying criteria, then an agent can help you narrow down the neighborhoods in Athens that suit your needs.

Last thing I would want is to have a law suit on our hands @Aaron Klatt Thats a really good idea, however, would this be legal in most states?

I'm trying to get the details of the lawsuit to see if there's a chance the suit can come to me, but the landlord is dragging her feet and asking me to give her any support material I may have.

If N is merely claiming $200, better to just pay or offer half and ask him to notify you *before* there is damage.Or pay a lawyer to defend a nuisance suit for damages...

It took a while to get the first property, but I am currently working on an H House (3 bed 1 bath with a basement) in Richland Washington that has a mother in law suite attached to it.

It has suited me well and has happened to me. 

Paint, flooring like luxury vinyl plank, curb appeal etc.

You could put a luxury vinyl right over it and that would make it look way better.
