Moving down to DC, aspiring landlord!

Hi all!

I'm a recent graduate student moving to the DC metro area from NYC area to DC! I'm hoping to learn more about the rental business in the DC area, and would hope to become a landlord one day myself. 

I will consider purchasing an income property before I make the move, but I thought I can learn more from the locals from the DC area to see which up and coming areas are best to invest in if I will be here long term. I'm excited to meet and network with people from the area through the forums!

@Iggy Smith Best way to learn about being a landlord is being a landlord. Tenants have the best stories. Get into a local Real Estate Investors Association and learn there with locals doing the landlord thing. Take em to lunch, they will share with you.
