Hello BiggerPockets community,I’m currently navigating a challenging situation and would appreciate some advice from this knowledgeable community.Property Details:Property 1: SF Detached 4 Bedroom 2.5 bath, Atlanta GA, approx 297k ValueProperty 2: SF Townhouse Atlanta GA, approx 197k ValueSituation: I have a $286,000 debt secured by these two properties.

I'm trying to navigate the S.F rent control laws.  

I got into this business working my day job, saving money for a down payment and then working from 6-11pm and weekends renovating the crappy houses I bought, so I could then rent them out.Recommend you find a way to motivate yourself and get your finances in order.

However for business development or scaling your business to the next level, these courses might offer some help.

My thoughts are to either consider it as a wholly separate business, using my (future) agent license to get to know the market, generate leads, etc.

People want to show you how great their business is going, what geniuses they are.

We are/were hoping to put a $60-70k down payment on a higher-end 'A' new build property with Rent to Retirement as I really like their business model/community, rather than a smaller down payment on a refurbished property in a 'C' area.

I did so because at the time to purchase the property was about half the cost of renting, and there were no STR regulations in Curry County or really beyond..I recognized early that the regulations that quickly developed to restrict my BNB business in Los Angeles were likely to reach other areas and by being ahead of the curve, could own a long term vacation rental, in a land I wanted to be anyway, before there were rules that would prevent that goal.
