@Danielle Levy a lot of questions regarding your accusations:1) What are the average Days On Market (DOM) for rentals in this "hot" market?

I just helped someone to buy his first multifamily in Kingston.I'm licensed in NYC and Ulster The area is hot, I get great deals daily, and the price/rent ratio is good.

If the market temperature is “VERY HOT” then you have found a good city to start wholesaling in.

Solid curtains, water fountain in the backyard, adding trees at the property line nearest the freeway, white noise generators are all other options.

I'm assuming that this situation wouldn't pass inspection, but one could argue that all the spaces the guests have access to (i.e. bedroom, bathroom) are safe and habitable + the guests wouldn't be exposed to the kitchen.Also, do the city inspectors inspect other parts of the home the guests won't access (i.e. inspectors check the basement for water infiltration even though no guests would ever be living or even going down there). 

In 2020/2021, when rates were at all-time lows, this area was super hot, like most other Atlanta markets, and investor demand was high.

You will likely hear from a lot of people pushing syndications since your post is chumming the water.

If they can't do that, keep shopping.This may require digging up the foundation, sealing it from the outside, and installing a french drain to keep water away from the walls.

Maintain your hot tub properly so no one gets "hot tub rash" or Legionnaire's disease. 

Also, my guests always love my little goodie basket of snacks and a few bottles of water.
