I would make this analysisA - Hoover, Mnt Brook, Homewood, Pelham Trussville, Alabaster B - Clay, Pinson, Centerpoint, Pleasant Grove, Leeds, Moody, South pointC- Tarrant, Inglenook, Eastlake, Birmingham, Norwood, D - Ensley, West End, Titusville, Midfield, Fairfield,F - I don't personally have any F area, I think there are good streets in every area if you are a out of state investor I would avoid anything below a B, as you can get sold a house on a bad block and overpay 

Mnt back in 2007-2008 and did ok with them .. of course i could have done much better had i lived up there , instead i lived 6 hrs south in Florida .. not far from where i live now ..

If your investing in Atlanta I can recommend a very good agent that helped me sell my investment property in Stone Mnt area over a year ago.

Right now i have applied to TD, MNT, and a local credit union.

Obviously you can use local advisers, but that is a whole other discussion.We brought in Mongolia and while the local market has been pretty reasonable to us the FX rate went from 1 USD : 1350 MNT (Local currency) to 1 USD : 2635 MNT today.

Ok I’ll take a stab at this one,i hate typing Youwei ,deal - depends on your risk tolerance  ,this is a nice property,pretty much “A” locationHopefully you most likely will have great tenant retention (saves you lots of $ over the years)Doesn’t look like there is much deferred mnt.

You'll find many posts here on BP that recommend only 5% for MNT Reserve.But that 5% won't work on lower class properties.We recommend:Class B - 10%Class C - 20%

5% MNT probably too low.5% vacancy with no experience?

You also only have 5% for CapEx and 5% for MNT, total 10%, and we usually recommend 15-20% for Class C.You'll also want to be careful with the property taxes!

All tenants are month-mnt.
