My fiance and I are currently looking for a STR in Blue Ridge, GA. 

Allow 3 unrelated peopleWheat Ridge, Littleton and Commerce CityAllow 4Aurora, Golden, Northglenn, Thornton, WestministerAllow 5Castle Rock, Colorado Springs, Arvada, Lakewood & ParkerWhat's this mean for me?

I've seen local tech jobs and wages grow a lot in recent years especially with the latest on Tech Ridge which I understand is going to have a large impact on higher paying jobs local to St George overall bringing in companies to HQ here.The prices here are too high for me to pursue being new to investing, but with the continued explosive growth such as Tech Ridge, Black Desert Resort nearing completing for the upcoming PGA tour, and so on it seems like a hot market that would pay off for investors with that kind of capital.

Not sure I'm nailing the analysis.My questions: are there still cash-flowing B-class properties to be had in areas like Pleasant Ridge, Norwood, Walnut Hills?

@Franck ArmandIf you are considering STR's, you may want to look at areas in the Blue Ridge Mountains.

Try Great Ridge Insurance Group.

Ridge Lending has the All in One HELOC.  

Pros for the area:  Location & proximity to Downtown, the Pearl, Brackenridge Park, the Museum Reach, 7 mins to the airport, and walkable to San Antonio Community College. 

I'm particularly passionate about Chattanooga, TN, Blue Ridge, GA, Charlotte, NC, Winston-Salem, NC and possibly Florida.Outside of real estate, I enjoy photography, marketing, outdoors and health optimization.Excited to learn and connect with you all!
