Getting started with house hack in Northern Virginia

[Account Closed]

Hi everyone!

My name is Clayton Singer and I am a 27 year old Navy veteran living in Northern Virginia. I have been reading a ton of BP and other books on REI investing and listening to BP podcasts and other YouTube videos and am very interested in starting my investment journey. My wife and I are currently renting in Northern Virginia and are looking to purchase our first home/house hack by the time our lease is up in March of 2021. I will be using the VA home loan for my first purchase and am wondering if there are any real estate agents that are in my area that have both worked with va home loans and investment properties before. If so, I would truly appreciate some guidance and mentoring towards this first purchase and hopefully many more! To get a grasp on what I am thinking is either a multi family property would be my first go to or am also ok with a SFH and renting by room or have an ADU on the property. Thank you for taking the time to read my post today and thank you in advance!
