I was recently in a similar position as you and I ended up finding the right fit for me. At

Is there enough meat on the bone that an rehabber or landlord will want to take the deal?

His roof was completely stripped & tarped (for 3-4 months) including the gutters so the JUST rehabbed basement (that they were living in) completely flooded as the sump pump was overworked & literally cooked itself.

no meat on that .

Nope, they put the utilities in their name, does not impact me at all.

I guess the way she explained it to me at the time is that the tax would still be paid, just deferred by reducing the cost basis and paid when the property was sold. 

It hasn’t been cash flowing because we had a prop mgmt company ....You had me at stressful and no cash-flow. 

If you can actually provide good deals with meat on the bone and stay consistently marketing for 12+ months, you will find success in Atlanta.

I let him know I was interested but the numbers didn't work for me at 85k.

To me, at this time, it’s not.
