You're essentially doing the same type of strategy except you're not putting your precious primary home at risk.

This was in Augusta GA and there is a paper mill close.

I have been looking in GA. ( Augusta, Columbus, Sandy Springs, Savannah, Roswell, GA area /  If you have any multi family under $4mm /20 or more units/ value add / B or C property in B area / mix of 1 and 2 bedroom / population more than 30k please let me know. 

Nobody renting in February, so if it is vacant then, you get to wait probably until August, as that immediate area and price range probably doesn't draw other tenants for the most part.JRB Carswell/River Oaks area, completely different type of area and clientele. 

He talks about many things like precious metals but focus on what a real asset is. 

I've done a couple of deals in GA where I've done some BRRRR homes now they are my rentals, I sold a house I remodeled in Augusta that I had tenants in for 2 years, and I've done some wholesale deals as well.I'm currently under contract on a house in Simpsonville that I plan to flip.

So they squander their precious time chasing lost money.

This amount includes utilities, taxes, insurance, repairs (8% of rents), vacancy (8% of rents), and capex (5% of rents).Link to the Redfin listing: https://www.redfin.com/ME/Augusta/39-Oak-St-04330/home/99940...

Banks typically lend based on secured assets, (owned real estate, precious metals, stock portfolios), etc.  

When I started managing single-family rental homes back in 2009 in Augusta, GA, there was less variance in the industry (and also less services available).
