I run a couple of corporate rentals and was told that Georgia law states I can only have 2 people in a one bedroom apartment but that was for long term leases.Is there a law that states I can have up to 4 people if it is short term (less than 2 weeks majority of the time) 

I'm working as an Insights Strategist during the day, putting in a few hours of marketing consulting work on the side during the week, and studying up on real estate investing on the weekends (and whatever time I have left over during the week).Having worked in the finance industry for the last couple years, I became increasingly aware of different types of investing vehicles, but never really considered real estate investing until I moved to Miami this last July.

They acknowledged that I had a perfect pymt record on other properties but it still had to be cleared by their “investigations unit”.  2 weeks later they finally turned it on.You might consider looking for properties that are just cosmetically inferior......e g lots of big flowery wallpaper, pink tiles in the bathroom, etc.  

Now on to the post, I came across what appears to be a good deal, it's a packaged deal of six duplexes (owner will only sell as a package) that is being offered at $145,000.

Maybe a family friend who could use a couple hundred a week and is responsible and has some free time to give you some sanity and time to find more deals 

My friend's family is poor but I'm planning on helping him fix that with our business ;)We live in the Daytona Beach area in Florida which as many people know is where the NASCAR Daytona 500 is held along with Bike Week so the housing market is ridiculous here (in a good way)We're thinking since we are both going to stay with our parents well into our 20's we should make our first investment on a duplex so we'll have a great financial boost from 2 units funding us.I just want some opinions from experienced investors on how they feel about this plan.

You'll know in six months if you like it.

The Bigger Pockets podcast is great I've been listening for a few weeks now

Follow the steps and you should have him out within 2 weeks.

Apologies for the beginner questions, I have just started learning about real estate about 2 weeks ago so all input is well precipitated!
