Get a second opinion, as a minimum, on your taxes just like you would with a health problem 

The poor little guy turned 14 years old and got diabetes.

In Atlanta especially the hard hit areas in the city you had rampant fraud.Take an old house that is 80 years old and put lipstick on it (con job) and then flip it and make 100k.City was more than happy to increase tax assessments to line the coffers.Now you have houses selling for 10k that are assessed at 150k to 200k.The taxes on these properties are insane.So even if you received 600 a month the taxes are about 60 percent of that.Factor in other holding costs and you are treading water if you are lucky.When you purchase you are buying for cash flow,potential appreciation,and potential redevelopment.Cash flow is what you buy on today.The other 2 items need to be factored in but can't be counted on.I would much rather buy in a suburban area.Buy an older house on land in the way of future commercial development.Get the house for 75k on 2 acres with road frontage.Rent out or use as your office for years until the developers come a knockin.Easily sell that 2 acres for 200k apiece if you bought the right land.In Atlanta these old houses the rent might rise a little in a few years and they might go from a bought price of 10k to 45k but I also think they will be money pits with all the items that are wrong with them (old foundation,knob and tube,galvanized plumbing,asbestos,tenant health claims,etc.)I just think there are much better investment mediums than these types of properties.They are appealing because many people have very little money so have to buy the high risk stuff.Sometimes it works out but many times you get burned.I would rather buy run down properties in much nicer areas.

I can say without a doubt that since gaining mentorship my finances have gotten better, my relationships have gotten better, my income, my skin & general health, my organization & upkeep of my house, I’ve received 3 promotions in my job, literally so much has been gained through mentorship that I’m pretty sure the only reason someone could think they don’t need a mentor in their life is because either A, they never really gave mentorship their full shot, they never sold out to it, or B, they didn’t find the right mentor/mentorship opportunity.
