Consider eviction time when buying rental
Some info:
In Fairfax or entire VA, very easy to evict, 3 weeks to 1 month. In Maryland, generally 60 days. In DC, if you can evict, 90+ days. It is very tenant friendly. I won't touch it unless it is high end, you will have no cash flow or negative cash flow. Or you need a very good PM.
In general touch in any democracy state, easy life in republican state.
PG county I heard needs 5% county tax, a pain. Yet downtown silver spring appears to be interesting.
Nova is more expensive in general due to strong high tech high pay jobs. Remember AMAZON H2Q impact?
Montgomery county is slower. Could consider howard county I feel in MD.
