However, I enjoy the more operational side of flips and would like to grow my business out of state to increase flipping volume and have less competition in finding deals.

You don't need the LLC but you may want it in the future as your net worth grows.

Atlanta MSA is great and growing, but Multi-Family supply coming on line there both now and through next year is significant, wouldn't this be a better/cheaper deal 1 year from now?

Now I own a thriving property management business, run a real estate team helping other investors learn how to grow and scale their portfolios, I have my own modest investment portfolio and have two development projects going at the moment.

Right now its slim pickings in real estate for properties that will cash flow or see any significant appreciation. of course they are always out there but a lot harder to find.The other question is why do you want to continue to grow?

It's been growing slowly for sometime now. 

It's a business - acquiring/building, managing, and growing a business. 

My parents had a 3 family growing up and I used to hate going there on weekends but I learned a lot and it obviously stuck with me.

I am the VP of OmniKey Realty LLC and we specialize in working with investors to grow their real estate portfolio.

I’m willing to put in the time and effort to learn and grow in this industry, but I could really use some guidance on where to start.
