But it has potential.

I highly recommend flying out to see the properties in person and the getting to know the city instead of picking a OOS location based on a spreadsheet numbers a turnkey company or agent shows a potential buyer or the numbers the buyer ran themselves. 

I was thinking I could potentially do a BRRR and keep them as renters until they are ready to move to a new location?

Yes, a 13 will potentially allow for a cram down or lien strip but we aren't in that environment where liens can be stripped or shrunk due to value depreciation. 

If it is FHA, you can potentially sell your property for more.

A staggering 86% of households earning under $25K spend over half their income on rent, highlighting the acute affordability crisis.Urgent calls for policy intervention, including incentives for housing production like the potential reintroduction of the 421-a tax abatement, are echoing through the city as leaders grapple with the severity of the housing shortage.

Now the numbers that's displayed publicly are mostly "pro forma" and not real numbers and everyone's talking about potentials. 

Now, for Airbnb/short-term rentals in Atlanta, relish the prospect of higher potential income and pricing flexibility, but brace yourself for intense management, competition, and potential regulatory changes.

For those of you who have been divorced, you should know that a judge can obligate you to pay child support, alimony, college tuition, private school tuition, mortgages etc...IS IT ILLEGAL for a landlord to ask for the finalized divorce agreement to see what potential FINANCIAL OBLIGATIONS a tenant is/could be responsible for that would affect his/her ability to pay the rent at a new residence?

Don't overlook potential tax benefits and appreciation.
