Newbie from DC

[Leland F.]

Hey everyone,

I've been lurking here for a while, just absorbing information, but finally decided to take the plunge and actually sign up.

I work full-time as a web developer in DC and hope to use that profession to support my real estate investing on the side. It sounds like a lot of people here do something similar.

I'm super interested in buying and holding rental properties in Baltimore, I'm just totally clueless on investor-friendly agents, lenders, contractors, property managers, and that sort of thing.

I'd love to connect with other like-minded people in the area. Any tips and advice would be greatly appreciated.

I hope to return the favor when I gain some of my own experiences in the real estate investment world.
