4monthsx4unitsx$500 $9,000 = Almost $25,000 in lost rents because I didn't have enough cash to do the repairs.If that isn't enough to scare you here's the icing on my cake: I had the properties listed in August as a Portfolio sale for $525,000 which would have been a 250% ROI in 18 months.

I'm stationed in Augusta, GA for the moment, but I'm originally from Fort Benning/Columbus, GA.

I went through something similar in Augusta GA and can say I wouldn't rush into it again - a lot of vandalism during construction and ample scrutiny from the city since it was a section 8 property and the previous owner ran it down to near condemnation.

I've had much better response rates during the summer months - typically May to August as this is when most folks are interested in moving in/out of my rentals.

Do any of you lovely folks do any real estate in augusta, ga

Just as fyi, I am an wholesaler currently living in Augusta, GA and I have a nice 2/1 under contract with min. 11% ROI and to make it even sweeter one mile from where the Master's take place.

So far what I currently know for residential is listed below;- REO (Can be found on bank websites, just input the city & state)- Craigslist, Zillow, Trulia, HotPads, Realtor.com, - Realtor, MLS (Already have listing e-mails set up, for three cities (Atlanta, Augusta, & Athens Georgia) with a realtor that is investor friendly)- Driving for Dollars, and utilizing listsource to find leads for Absentee Landlords and Homeowners with high levels of equity- Talking to people at work, supermarket, subdivision, etc.3) After buying one property and finally seeing that I could generate additional cash flow, I want to start planning for future commercial purchases such as apartment complexes (20 Units).
