Good REIA in Northern VA?

[Travis Geary]

I'm starting out in REI and am looking for a good REIA in northern VA. I've read about how essential REIAs can be to an investor, but I've also read about how they are often nothing more than platforms for gurus.

Can anybody from the metro area provide suggestions for local REIAs that focus on investing in Virginia and are geared toward educating the members, not selling them?

Thanks for the help,

Travis
