Bought our first home in 2007, but investing since 2012 -- specific SFRs, only in NC b/c of my mom's influence and unique skill set (feel free to read my bio for more on that - kinda long story -- so I won't take over your thread with it!) 

Dang key word alerts, usually it's the questions that have already been answered a hundred time on here, nothing unique about a circumstance just the same general "too risky" "due on sale" stuff.Go to my profile page, search my posts in the past 12 months, finance in the title or text, wrap, seller financing, installment sale, Sub-2, will all bring you on target. 

Hello fellow investors,I'm relatively new to the investing game in the US market, and I am interested in exploring the possibility of investing in the Atlanta Beltline area.

We all have unique experiences with how we are impacted and how often.  

I'm saving as much as I can for a down payment and exploring additional finance options; still, I'm curious if anyone has any experience using an FHA or FHA203K in any of these cities?

Thanks Ned,  That's the option that I will be exploring next week.

The benefit of private lending is the ability to find unique structures that add maximum value for both parties.      

I'm reading up on lots of different real estate topics right now to bring myself up to speed, so that is an area I will definitely explore soon.

The user interface is clunky, the property advertisement page is very basic, and the ability to do "unique" things is tough.Some of the other services I use are Podio, ISC (for resident screening), Cozy for electronic payments, and rentalapplication.net for online applications (as it was free, but soon to charge). 

Hood and downtown, plus a 600 square feet budget finished basement with full bath - basement not currently legal living space.Located in SW Portland on Marquam Hill between Barbur and Terwilliger, just 1 mile south of downtown, walking distance to OHSU and 1 block to the bus line.It was built on 1908, and is a unique old PDX situation in that there is no street running in front of the house (the original street was vacated when Barbur Blvd was put in).
