Adding Value as Commercial Project Manager
Professionally, I'm a project manager for a commercial construction management firm. I've managed the design and construction of commercial projects ranging from $40-750M. I have started tinkering with residential real estate on the side but would be interested in your opinions if there are other starting points in real estate where I'd add more value than just buying individual SFH's as I'm doing now. I live in the Washington DC market (live in Maryland and work in Northern Virginia ).
Thanks for your thoughts.

@Matt Vaughn Congrats on getting started in real estate investing. I'm not involved in commerical real estate, so I don't have a lot to add to this comment, except to ask what made you want to invest in SFH properties over commercial properties? It sounds like with your background you already have some experience the commerical 'side of things' which could be helpful wihen looking to invest in commercial properties. Just a thought. With whatever you decide, wish you well.
