newbe to the MD and DC real estate market

[Lee Culver]

Hi.  I moved to Friendship Heights (southern Montgomery County) Maryland 2 years ago after living in central PA for 27 years.  Sold my house in PA and would like to understand the real estate market here in my area.  I would like to find and hold a small multiple family dwelling in NW DC or maybe Silver Spring area.  I have always done a lot of the work around my house - plumbing, carpentry, electrical, painting, and yard work - and am not afraid to try to fix an appliance when necessary.  You can always find the info you need on the web!

I undoubtedly have more money than time, as I am working full-time (or more) and have a 35-50 min commute each way.  So I would like to talk with others who have time to look for good deals and need a partner to make something work.  I understand the 70% rule, and I know how to find comps on a house.

Not too sure about this web site, but I'm willing to give it a try.  Have been reading the Rich Dad Poor Dad book and listening to one of Brandon's books, and have heard on of the BP podcasts.  Am not yet sure that BP isn't just hustling people, but they haven't asked me for money yet, so that is a good sign.  If I meet some like minded investors, that will be great.

Thanks.  Lee Culver
