New to Washington D.C. and Bigger Pockets

[Aaron Ray]

Hello! Anyone from the D.C. Area? I just graduated college from Penn State and I'm currently splitting a house rent 4-ways with some friends in the D.C. area. My original plan to get started into real estate investing, was to buy a duplex, live in it and rent the other unit, or possibly even the BRRRR Method. But my plans have now changed because of moving to the D.C. Area. Honestly, I have no idea how I'll ever afford something in this area. I was originally planning on the Erie, PA or Pittsburgh PA areas, but now that I'm in the D.C. Area, I don't know how I'll be able to do it. Does anyone have any ideas other than working 4 jobs to raise money? haha
