I do think it's an area that could see growth in the future, it just doesn't fit my plans as a more hands-off investor.

@Michael Wolffs I agree that decisions should be made on current cash flow vs. future growth.

The area is really seeing some growth.

Some data points we look at are population, population growth/loss, unemployment, crime rate etc.We then filter out the rows with characteristics from those data points that do not fit our criteriaAfter filtering, we order bpos on every row, and that gets returned to us in a massive spreadsheet.We then run some calculations to filter out blatantly bad BPOs and filter out words we don't want like such as "fire", "burned", "demolished" and "razed".Once we have a list of properties we're interested in, we use an excel formula to create a bid amount for each row.We get to pick out the properties we want to bid on in the pools.

I have been doing a lot of research looking at Atlanta's master plan, Beltline vision and seeing evidence of city's growth along the different corridors and exploring neighborhood trends and thought the area had lot of potential in the long-term given the overall vision, population growth and proximity to major highways and the airport.The property in question is based in Peoplestown and would result in $150-200 in cash flow per month.

Everyone will hopefully find their fine balance of: - liquidity and liquid reserves - asset/equity growth goals - debt management and cash flow management by strategically managing loan terms, notes payable, allocating, shifting, and replacing the more expensive debt instruments with less costly and better terms (fixed, no balloons, non interest rate sensitive) - tax planning - recoop losses from your financial bucket to be redirect to higher purposes or returns - estate tax planning - if you're over 5.34 mil and cannot siphon off your wealth quick enough through the 14k gift allowed annually per person- risk management - since each person has their own risk tolerance for each of the above categories To focus on just equity growth with out considering the other areas of planning may be very risky but thats just my opinion.

No growth.

I've come up with a strategy to target a market with potential for massive growth in the next few years, and purchase first-position tax liens on vacant lots properly zoned for multi-family.
