I think there's a niche for people like you or myself, maybe it's not the biggest market because most people don't want to deal with your specialty of fixer uppers, but glad to hear you're not ruling it out. 

Atlanta's job market has lots of levels in pay and employment rates are lowest in years. 

Hey Hamid, Being an agent in South Florida I think it really depends on the use of the property currently, what level of work you want to do to the property, and whether you care more about a %return or total return. 

I invest in Alberta and it looks like the maximum affordability level would be extremely easy to meet and give enough points for 5% down 50 years amortization and limited recourse. https://www.cmhc-schl.gc.ca/...

It would bode well for you to dig deeply into this before putting any real wheels in motion, as you'll be dealing with OPM and have a high level of responsibility and (therefore) risk.The book by Matt and Liz Faircloth on Raising Private Capital would be a prudent read. 

The homes here are very affordable too, which makes it a nice entry-level market.

Get a piece of corner bead (go thin since you are overlapping the upper area, so the paper with embedded metal would be good option).

I dont think I have the infrastructure to buy fixer uppers...

As we work through the due diligence models, I'm trying to gauge the level of interest out there for investors who would consider purchase of a new construction 4plex.

No one knows your stress level you can handle or want to handle but you.
