New Investor in Northern Virginia

Jared Rohlfs
Posted

Hey All!

I'm a relatively new to real estate investing, but trying to learn more.  I am most interested in rentals, and I currently rent rooms in my primary residence, and purchased a rental townhouse.  I went into the townhouse with the idea of minimizing interest and rushing to own it outright as soon as possible, which seems to be the opposite of a lot of strategies I see. 

I'm interested in learning more, specifically about how to find the best deals. I'm open to partnering, and I'm really curious to hear about any success anyone else has found in rentals in the area, as the ratios just seem really tough around here (ie. I don't think I've ever seen a deal that suits the 2% or 1% rule).

Thank you! :)

Jared

@Jared Rohlfs glad to have you.

The market here is insane but deals can be found for sure.

I’m in Leesburg, and there’s a local meet up every other Thursday.

Happy deal-finding!
