Of course great deals can be had in any market but it seems Atlanta is flooded with investors right now and it's slim pickings.

The odds of it just needing replacement windows is slim to none and therefore could be an expensive fix.

The margins are pretty slim in my price range.

You can tell everyone otherwise, including myself, but I know for a fact that the chances of me buying from NW or NWA is slim to none. 

Inventory is very slim where I am (Atlanta, GA area) and I'm trying to find good inventory that is not on the MLS so I have a better shot and getting a good deal on a property.Any other advice is very welcomed as I am completely in the dark as to what to expect from this meeting and how I should approach it.

But I remember a poster once wrote (I think it was Nate) that if you run a good business, provide quality service and do not cut corners, the likelyhood that a lawsuit exceeds your insurance is slim.

Thanks @Robert Motch - I am definitely considering house hacking as a good option and agree that selling would really only be in the case of a lot of appreciation and when the cash flow is very slim.

I am attempting to launch my first purchase within Q1 of 2017 with a focus on searching for 3 to 4 unit + properties, but the upstate seems to be slim pickings.  

They have off-market listings that they share with buyers that they know that can close and/or have done prior deals with.In California and in some appreciating states, cash flow is slim but possible over time. 

The margins are slim but still positive, but the reason I purchased the house is due to property values rising a significant amount in two years (dam issue on lake, currently extremely low, coming back up in 2022 after repairs).
