New investor from NJ, soon to be DC Metro

[Kim Uhland]

Hello BP,

I've been watching the forums for some time now and finally decided it was time to jump in.  I've got a masters degree in real estate and have been in development (single family and self storage/industrial) for approximately ten years now.  My husband is in the military which has bounced us around quite a bit (DC, SC, NJ, CA, NJ) giving breadth to my knowledge of the industry.  My ultimate goal is buy and hold self storage.  I know the industry fairly well having developed a few from the ground up.  

More immediately, my husbands job will be taking us to the DC Metro area this summer. My company would be interested in acquiring self storage there so I'll be on the hunt.  For my personal use, I'd like to find a mixed-use property where we could live and also bring in some cash flow.  Does anyone have a recommendation for a good commercial broker in the DMV area?

Any input is much appreciated.
