New investor looking to learn about DC's market, make connections

[Daniel Green]

Hey everyone,  

I'm Dan, 35 here, I'll be able to make my first purchase in summer '26. I work in Potomac, MD, and would like to buy a condo or apt that I can easily commute and live in, and then eventually rent out, and then buy another. 

I'd be happy to make connections over similar goals, and to learn about tax info for DC, great spots to buy, and trends for rentals. I figured DC would be a great area to invest in because it attracts tons of young professionals. Maybe you can prove me wrong? 

Let's talk,

Dan

Ive actually been looking into buying a condo myself as an investment, I have a few rules, needs to be with both good hoa management & relatively cheap fee (bellow $600 a month) needs to be in area where I’m not competing against other new construction apartments, needs to be an area where even townhomes are so expensive you are not competing, I.e. upper nw, nova, Bethesda etc. needs to be 1990’s or newer in most cases.
