Second would be connecting with RE folks in your local market either in person or here on BP.I think house hacking in McDonough is a great place to start.

@Tracy ScottScour the HOA docs for wording involving occupancy such as, "not more than three (3) persons not related by blood or marriage living and cooking together as a single housekeeping unit."

I am the one still alive, and do not want to continue to be solely responsible for taxes and upkeep while heirs are located and hopefully property can be sold.

Thank you for the thoughtful response, Shawn.

Thanks for the response Amir!
