Hi,I’ve been around attorneys for a while & I even studied criminology & law in college.

My business partner and I are looking to invest in single-family homes and duplexes in and around Atlanta.

Mortgage rates have come down and dropped even more over the last few days so get a second quote.

The Fair Housing Act may not apply to the following types of housing in some cases:Owner-occupied buildings with no more than four units,Single-family housing sold or rented without the use of a broker, andHousing operated by organizations and private clubs that limit occupancy to members.Again, talk to HUD and see if you are exempt, then you can put this entire issue to bed.

I looked at almost every market in florida before I relocated from columbus ohio because miami Dade County has the most net migrations in the entire United States for one county. we build it in columbus ohio and it is worth approx 215k a door but down here all you'd have to do is change the assemblies and in miami that triplex would be worth more than 300k per door so closer to 900k depending on where you built it. new construction single family homes are going for around 330 per sq ft in the same area and a triplex is considered residential. by building codes a 4 unit is commercial I'd recommend 3 unit first or going as many units as possible if you have backing or your own cash. for each one we do we recommend 100k of liquidity. 

If our kids go with us and we drive to LA on a Sunday, all of our direct car related expenses are tax deductible even though the kids are in the car including 1/2 of the meals for my wife and I.  

Even facebook might have some good local groups for you.

If people can access basic needs, and even new homes, for free it will eliminate rent and sales for many existing homes.

A lot of brokers are not even aware of what rental arbitrage is so maybe your broker understood a completely different concept.

I would even say, 4-5x if you really want to get to the top of your goals and then some.
