In general, loans that are not government backed (so excluding conventional home loans and some education loans) make sense to payoff rather than attempt to achieve a better return via an investment.Good luck

@Anthony J RumaI am originally from California I own a property management company in Texas. 50 to 60% of the people that I work with are out of state or out of country investors the biggest challenge that I see when people get involved in the real estate is that they don’t have a goal as to why they’re buying the deal and they buy a deal just because they think it’s a deal but it really has nothing to do to match or align with the goals I’m not sure buying this deal matches your goals but you always want to make sure that this deal aligns with the your strategy to help you achieve your goal otherwise the odds of your success or slim to none in my opinion

Atlanta been hot for some time nowSeems inventory is steadily increasing, this may see the market changeHowever, Clayton County is still achieving double digit growth, lower entry point attracting first home buyersAnyone have any feedback on this market

Name 3 things you plan on achieving in the real estate world today!!!!!

Congrats on all you have achieved so far. 1.

I think that through flipping, I’ll be able to get us out of debt fast and achieve financial independence a lot sooner.

@Rick NovotnyCongrats on your current achievements!

@Trong TranHey Trong, I'm in the Atlanta area also my niche is wholesaling let's do this and achieve our goals.

The prices have increased dramatically there in the last 9 months and I have heard of crime in the area of Oak Grove first hand from inspection related work.  

If you do a live in flip, you can perhaps rent the house after 2 years and move to a bigger house. 3-5% down savings is EASILY achievable if you follow the rules in the book.
