I'm sure that is not your intension, but the antitrust law doesn't care about your intension.A few of the things I want to see minimum is good communication, consistent process, good understanding of the rules and regulations, and experience.

I still had to hustle when a door and a water heater had to be replaced or the plumbing backed up on Christmas day.

Other than that, you'll have to check regular maintenance items (i.e. roof, heating and air conditioning, plumbing, flooring, etc).

I'm a bit cautious about Airbnbs in cities -- I'm not familiar with the regulations in Atlanta, but I would recommend really looking into it and pouring through all the past news articles about lobbying/short term rentals/unhappy residents, etc to gauge the possibility that your rental could be banned/zoning issues/increasing taxes, etc.
