Lol stop it. Atlanta been popping since Freaknik, the summer Olympics, BMF, and folks been coming for the strip clubs ever since I could remember.

Yeah but rent during those days were cheap, them was the 90s and early 2000s. Social media just made it really blow up and now more people are moving there than ever. Everybody is trying to hit up ATL

Bought my house for 499,999 in 2017. Bout to sell it for 615+ :wow: It’s a sellers market


But then I gotta try to turnaround and find something nice that’s not too overpriced :mjcry:it’s a sellers market
What would be your strategy making the sell worth it? I feel like buying another overpriced home right after isn’t the move. I’m genuinely curious

How's your trailer holding up in Reno?....and alot your people live here in Seattle as well....they think they're white....:mjlol:....
Seattleites don’t like to admit it, but this is a pretty white city.

In fact, the latest census figures show it’s the fifth whitest of the 50 biggest cities in the country. That means there’s a higher proportion of Caucasian people here than in Denver, Oklahoma City, or even Minneapol

North Jersey but I miss Cali :sadcam:
There's still spots people sleep on like Mississippi and Alabama.:patrice:



I been on this wave. Chinese folks buying up hella shyt all over and our greedy politicians don't do anything about it.

People blame a lot of this country's problems on illegal immigrants, while foreigners buy up and own billions in real estate :mjlol: in many cases without stepping foot in this country.

ATL, but rasied in DMV
Im looking for an apartment to rent right now and these prices are damn near impossible..Im in atlanta and my last spot in midtown 4 years ago with granite countertops etc was 1150, now the same unit is 1450:picard:this is before all the bs monthly fees like trash, parking, etc.

A couple leasing agents were saying Covid fukked the game up bc renters weren't paying, so the complexes had to raise the prices. Some were saying the managers are literally throwing prices out there and seeing what sticks, sad part is people from out of town will pay:gucci:some truly evil villain shyt.

Im from the state people who are actually from here are getting priced out, meanwhile people from Cali, Philly, Chicago, or w/e they're from are raising the cost of living and making the traffic worse:what:

Im not mad at people looking for more opportunity but this isnt sustainable. The cost of living is rising above inflation and wages are staying the same. Pretty soon we'll all have to live in Mississippi or Alabama to have affordable housing
Is this why everybody hate my ass down here, eventhough I'm from the DMV. My real estate agent told they liked us bringing all our money down here, and I don't think she was just talking about herself.

But my property tax has doubled since I moved here, and they're rising.

There are still decent prices for "luxury" apartments in the $1100-$1500 range where I live, too much vacancy; dropped their prices over the last year or at least offering 2 months free for a 12-15 month lease.

Don't be goofy and pull up with a Charger or BMW unless you rent a garage space because it will get broken into

I’m in a unique situation. I lived in the house for 2 years then moved away and have been renting it for the last two so technically I can still sell and not have to pay capital gains. im currently renting another home while I have tenants in my crib. So technically I can just keep renting after I sell.

The issue is if I continue to rent and prices just keep going up. Does that make sense ?

I saw your post in the ATL thread and just went :francis: good luck


You've been gone four years. A lot has changed with the prices since then.

Since you're renting, you ever consider hosting and renting airbnb. I can't see how a housing price crash would affect you as much going this route. This would be the perfect move if you're single and don't have kids, or have a wife who like to travel.

It's the price of living to live in these new glamor southern cities :yeshrug:



I've been cool with living in simple Ol' Memphis, Tennessee where the price of living is great. I'm able to save a lot of money. :manny:
