This is in contrast to Texas, which actually is running a deficit before receiving their precious stimulus money from Biden.Damn these facts... 

i have the benefit of the VA loan and my friend that is on pretty much the same pay was given up to 350K loan with the VA loan, so i figured it would be easy for me to secure that financing and get a nice quadplex. boy was i wrong... the bank is only willing to give me a 150K loan (which is weird as i also have similiar credit to my buddy) and living in augusta georgia everything that is multifamily is very expensive and old. the cheapest duplex i could find was 180K and in disrepair, so i decided perhaps i could just buy a single family home and have roommates/ split the house/ ADU. but i can't even get quotes from local construction companies until i own the home apparently. so i don't think i can calculate the expenses until after i buy the home.so based on the situation i'm reaching out for help on the forums. any advice is appreciated!

Hello BP, We are currently going through negotiations for an out of state rental property in Augusta, Maine.

The wholesaler who is too unknowledgeable or incompetent to ever conclude a successful sale and costs the seller precious time by tying up the property in a contract that won’t ever close4.

Start an eviction process as soon as the tenant default, best case scenario you work out a deal and drop the case, worst case you move forward with the eviction and you didn't lose precious time trying to make things work (guessing you're in a C-D areas of Detroit, tenants are well aware of the process and like to play the watch to stay in the house for free as long as possible), navigating the courts since covid is a lengthy process so the sooner you start the better. 

I’m in Augusta currently and at the end of my 5 year journey of school and moving to Knoxville for a high paying job, I will be able to go under contract with something the week I move down there, who’s trying to connect?

I am a new resident of Augusta, GA.

It's knows as the Augusta Rule. 

My view is the land is precious and using it for HQ or factories is not making best use of the limited properties that is needed for the tech talent.  

So I'm on the ground more often than he is, I was already investing there and have the market knowledge and precious connections he doesn't have and I have access to deals he would never get access to.
