What Are Your Thoughts On Investing In Properties In SE DC?

[Nathan Silver]

SE DC has the most affordable property in the city, but for obvious reasons. Is it a wise long term play for a buy and hold? Share your thoughts with me.

Nathan. As you probably know as a fellow DC investor and owner, “SE, DC” includes everything from the Supreme Court, parts of Cap Hill, Hillcrest and many other parts of the city. 

Just like most of the city (including NW), DC is block by block. I have properties in SE and they’re just fine (understatement). They’re not in the hood, or what some might classify as “war zones” as some describe specific neighborhoods, and they’re a great part of my portfolio. 

I also own in NE and NW, and each cash flow and have appreciated. Happy to discuss any particular neighborhood or area, many of which will be unfamiliar with out of town folks who only know neighborhoods once they’re fully gentrified and overpriced.
