• Cumming GA. I'll work your flip on Saturdays to learn what things really cost. (biggerpockets.com) — A Cumming resident working toward their first rental property is offering to spend Saturdays doing hands-on work on local flips in exchange for learning real renovation costs. They're available for demo, cleanouts, painting, and punch lists, and hope to shadow experienced investors scoping projects anywhere north of Atlanta, including Forsyth and nearby counties.
   

• H-1B Sponsorship Now Runs Through Private Homes, New Analysis Finds (headlineusa.com) — Cumming appears in new federal visa data as one of several cities where dozens of H-1B visa holders list residential addresses as their official worksites, raising questions about how the program is being used. A national analysis ties this pattern to Biden-era rule changes that make it easier for foreign workers to start companies and sponsor themselves and others, with clusters reported across multiple states.
