Did not work out with the first renter however, I have found my stride and now have a great renter.Looking to hold this long term as it is a great value within the city of Atlanta which lacks affordable single-occupant housing lacks.

@Ed Emmons correct working with the city inspectors at a local inspectors will bring you more clout than the folks that try to get away with Shady stuff.Recently recently brought a duplex in an area of Rock Hill South Carolina. first thing we did was replace the plumbing from under the house to the road which I found out was backing up four years before we purchased.

I found this deal by accessing the MLS through my agent.
