I have a couple rental properties and I'm starting to grow and get a reputation. 

That, or sell off a percentage as homes age past whatever their model dictates, and reinvest in newer homes to rebalance the portfolio.Lastly, even if they only make appreciation of $15k/property, that means a company like AH4R will net $750 million since their portfolio is 50,000 properties. 

I'm a new investor in Atlanta looking to grow the network.

But most my friend who has kids at school age move out from there.

It's in a good school district and a part of Oklahoma City that's growing.

Today I closed on my first investment property and I look forward to fixing it up and growing my network.

When you are young you typically need leverage to grow that empire/thing you want, and that's good.

I contract roofing ,due primarily to my age, and dry wall mudding which takes me too long to do economically myself.I do pretty much everything else myself on full gut renos.

I learned a valuable lesson at an early age on this one.

Mold can get in your lungs and grow there.
