New Investor Seeking Guidance in DC Metro Area

[Farhan Khan]

Hello BiggerPockets community,

I'm a new investor ready to enter the real estate market in the DC metro area, with a focus on Northern Virginia. My strategy is to invest in rental properties for cash flow and consider flipping opportunities when appropriate.

As a beginner, I'm seeking guidance from experienced investors who can help me navigate the landscape and avoid common mistakes. I am open to the possibility of investing with someone that understands the market and has been in this business already.  I would greatly appreciate any recommendations for essential resources, such as websites, books, or forums, that have been invaluable to your own real estate investing journey.

Furthermore, if you have referrals for trusted professionals in the DC metro area, such as contractors or property managers, I would be immensely grateful.

If you're an experienced investor in this region and open to collaborating with an enthusiastic newcomer, I would love to connect and explore potential partnerships.

Thank you for your support and advice. I'm excited to learn from and contribute to this remarkable community.
