Or you want to spent the time, effort, and money to try and self-source an off market deal here.  

Best advice is to partner with someone who specializes in investment properties in the Austin area.

Metro Atlanta, generally speaking, respective markets 30 to 45 minutes from the City, will be tight on cash flow unless you implement a creative investment strategy, such as short-term rentals, medium-term rentals, or rent-by-the-room properties, or allocate at least 30% to 35% towards your downpayment if you intend to hold the property as a long-term rental. 

I've only invested in STRs and was looking to get into small multi-family but haven't seen anything that made sense in any of the markets I invest in so was curious where people were seeing good opportunities.  

@Shiloh Lundahl - The real estate investing ecosystem seems to have been hit very hard, in terms of interest in in-person events, absolutely.

I assume any painter / handyman doing your turnover could do that kind of touch up in almost no time for almost no money.  

In Memphis, TN, we have solid communites to invest in around our airport.

Right now you have $1,000 in cash flow that can be used to fund other projects (seed money), pay you in profit to supplement your lifestyle, or fill in any gaps for underperforming properties.  

Was that purchase money, rate and term refi, or cash out refi?

@Haresh Patel I am invested in their Pic Car Wash 2,3,4.
