Networking and other events in VA

[Jonnathan Thompson]

I've been looking online and at the events page here. Is there any networking or even real estate conferences going on in the area? I see a lot going on in Maryland. I am looking for anything around DC and as far south as Richmond. I am just looking to learn and network. I've seen several posts about how you should get private funding from investors, and although I'm not at that point, it would be interesting to talk to those who have actually done it locally.
