They are good values, great easy reads and well organized. 

My backyard is flat except in the farther side of it their is a hill that almost other subdivision across it can see it. in that hill since some of it is my property i throw my wood stuff in there with some motor thingy and other stuff , its definitely not a trash. and this guy comes in tells my son that if we don't clean that area he would call the (DOD) something something organization and police on me. i wish i was home to talk to him that that little area is my property and i can throw anything i want to as long as it does not bothers my neighbors. i need help  understand this better......... am i right ?

Right now I am looking to do work between grant park and stone mountain, in that general region of SE Atlanta.Does anyone have any good contractors they can suggest that are investor friendly?

It's all public data but they have it organized effectively.

I also would ask at city hall if there are any tenant organization or group in the area that could help you.

You don't have to work for a corporate conglomerate if you like accounting - there's lots of public and private entities to work for, socially active organizations, etc.

What system can I use, instead of inventing my own, to organize myself to get to the closing table?    

@Jacob Reilly helps organize it.

As a new investor, I also took the liberty of researching this firm and read less than favorable reviews for this organization.

I see how focused and organized you are, it's just a matter of time before you wrap up your first deal.
