As an investor-focused real estate agent, I can assure you that there are areas in Atlanta that can vary block by block.

Block your neighbours calls.

Foundations are endemic and you need to be very well-informed as to the neighborhoods. for out of state I concur with 39211  and some of 39206  the other zips are south jackson which can be very block to block and in my mind more appropriate for a local in the know investor like Susan..  39211 is a very nice mixture of owner occ and rentals where a fixed up home will retail and retail for a nice profit many times.. 

I'm looking for ideas on how to handle a potential bust cycle and prevent it from blocking my progress towards acquiring a second property.

Louis is indeed block by block

I would ignore/block those emails, if I were you.

If I am going to the more affordable area, I'd try to stay within a block of Kensington Ave versus further in, if that makes sense.I've spoke to some PM's in the area, anything specific you're referring to? 

If I am not mistaken the current rule is a 12% STR "occupancy" on a given block face in Bexar county.

Regular concrete blocks are structural, shear strength but not insulative.

So we had to manually block off the dates for about 80 reservations across a bunch of properties.Well, we missed one and accidentally took a booking on our listing for dates that should have been blocked off.
