I would like to know potential rent estimate for a Condo ( 2BD, 2.5 BH) in Buckhead, Atlanta GA 30305.

Once you find a potential tenant, you have to go through a Housing Quality Standards (HQS) inspection, which can take a while and may require some repairs or tweaks to pass.

How do you evaluate R.E. deals for potential creative financing opportunities?

It's a dynamic world - if I could find a 3-4 unit that cash flowed 200 a month per unit and hit a 15 plus ROI - i would jump all over it - I just only see this type of potential return (and better) in more depressed areas.  

@Jon Fletcher There are basically two potential options. 1) Amend the tax return in the year of purchase and prove you used capital gains to purchase the property and 2) Sell the property to an OZF, follow the 20% related party rule and then the structure of the sale of the property to be able to reinvest the gains.

I've been keeping my eye on San Antonio a bit as it seems it's going through a correction and potential for cash flow may be increasing.

At a conservative 6.25% capitalization valuation, the building is worth $16,480,000 in 9 months based on a run-rate NOI of $1,030,000.Key Finacial Highlights:- Projected Total Revenue Potential: $1.15M to $1.7M, reflecting a 48% increase.- NOI Growth: From $603K to a run-rate of ~$1M within the first 12 months, marking a 73% improvement.

I also think college can be a good experience with potential lifelong contacts.  

Your chances of success will be much higher in the best locations because the high demand of people wanting to live there combined with high appreciation potential will make up for the inefficiencies and risks of operating remotely.
