@Lake Bradford, without knowing anything else about your financial profile, I recommend that you consider house hacking your first deal upon your move to Atlanta.

Areas like Windermere and Lake Nona are seeing rapid growth in exclusive developments, offering luxury residences that combine nature and modernity.Palm Beach: This area is an icon of classic luxury.

I tried to look at some properties for STR in Pocono Lakes, Hudson Valley, and Jersey Heights as this will be my first investment I'm worried as these will be good locations to go ahead for STR.

I have had this goal of buying my first duplex and have talked to real estate investors, realtors, lenders, appraisers and have been encouraged so much to where I am anxious to dive into this.Now that I am 18 I have absolutely no debt, a credit score of 727, I have 28k sitting in a certificate of deposit, a couple years of working consistently under my belt, I’ve also been investing in my Roth IRA, I feel very blessed to be in this situation.I am still in high school, I know it wouldn’t be smart to buy a house right now but something in me is so anxious to buy this house I know I have to have patience but I don’t know if I should start the process of getting pre approved, finding a good investor friendly realtor, lender, preparing my documents or if I should just wait.When analyzing deals in my market I have crystal clear real estate deal criteria my strategy is house hacking a duplex, price range of 500,000-600,00 in Salt lake, Utah! 

For example, in our lake house, we do a full wine box packed with snacks and a couple of drinks.

The irony...the party of tolerance being intolerant. insurance is always a bouncing ball.. my insurance in Lake Oswego and we have no fire risk other than normal No weather risk  just risk of winter gloom and depression. 

I’m already aware of the popularity of Joshua Tree and Lake Tahoe, so I’m interested in hearing about other markets that are strong performers and investor-friendly in terms of regulations.Does anyone have insights on:Specific cities or regions where the permit process is more straightforward?

I have 3 highly successful STVR homes (Austin TX, Tybee Island GA, Lake Lure NC) and have built my own homes a few times including most recently GC'd my residence in Rome GA. 

This project spans over 49+/- acres and features 50ft, 60ft, & 70ft lots, adjacent to a large lake that will serve as a stunning community amenity.

Just last year I had a company from Salt Lake City install a metering system for heat on my 12 plex.
