New Member living in Virginia

[Ginger Walker]

I just finished the book Low to No Money Down from Bigger Pockets and I am excited to step up my Real Estate Investing portfolio. I currently have a duplex we acquired using a VA loan, we lived in one side and rented the other and when we moved started to rent out both. I have had the property for 4 years and love owning rental property. I want to expand our rental portfolio. I am learning about all different types of investments but I think my passion is in buying and holding for long term cashflow. We just moved to Northern Virginia and real estate is costly in the area but we are from Oklahoma and hope to eventually be in the Oklahoma City area and have been thinking about focusing around the Norman / SE Oklahoma City / Tinker Air Force Base area for rentals. Would love any advice from people who have done deals while being geographically separated from the area you want to invest in.
