I have two appointments coming up to see the houses.

Our thoughts are similar, hoping to consolidate in ten years, 2018-2020, sell a few, pay off the rest after capital gains, then have a wonderful retirement.We did see the potential for collapse when our friends who never had investment property in their lives are bragging about forming partnerships with other friends, equally as inexperienced, buying weird shaped lots in strange areas and being absolutely certain that they were going to make a fortune in a few months in 2006-2007.

Atlanta is a diverse city and we have been glad to see the returns us and others have made investing here.
