Hi @Sharif Ibrahim welcome!  You will not be disappointed.

Hi Bigger Pockets,

I am interested in attending/networking an investor meet up in the Washington DC area.  Is there anything scheduled currently?  If not who in the area would be interested in attending one?  I wouldn't be opposed to setting up a monthly meeting.  

I look forward to the relationships built!

@Tiffany Alexy @Ryan Hopkins @Keivan Darius thank you all for reaching out! I hope to talk further.

Best,

Welcome!  

Hi BP,

I am looking to expand into a different market, more specifically the North Carolina markets of Charlotte, Raleigh, and/or Durham.  I live in Washington DC so I will obviously need to generate feet on the ground/great relationships and potentially a partner while exploring this endeavor.  I am in no rush, as I want to learn the market significantly before I dive in.  

Current Statistics:

Work as a real estate agent in Washington DC.  Also work for a condo Developer in the city.  Purchased my first condo in September 2016 (primary residence), currently renting out 2 of the bedrooms for $1,250/each and living for $650/month.  I purchased my first Duplex in SW March 1, 2017 and have continued to purchase until this point.  My original goal was 10 by the end of the year and I fortunately hit that goal September 1st.

Own 11 Units

-1 Condo in DC

-10 Units (Quadplex, Duplex, 4 Single Family Homes) in SW Virginia.

My Goal:

Own 465 Units by 2022.

Develop a thriving development business that concentrates on larger value add condo/apt. complexes.

I look forward to any relationships that are built and any advice/input that is given.

Thank you BP~

Thank you all for the great advice.  I will keep you posted on how everything turns out!  Thanks again.

@Jimmy Nazaire Do you have address?

Hi BP,

I hope everyone is having a great week so far.  I however have not.  

I just recently purchased this a quadplex with 3 units occupied and 1 unit vacant.  During the closing period of the unit the seller let me show the unit so I could have the unit occupied when I closed.  I found who I thought would be the perfect tenant, passed all of the screenings, met her, multiple phone conversations, everything was great.  She moved in and after 1 month has done a 360.  Police have been called 2x in the last week.  Trash outside the back of the unit, people coming in and out, partying, the neighbors saw her having sex butt naked on the back porch in broad daylight.  How do I handle this situation and when is it suitable to ask her to leave the unit?  I'd like to try to avoid eviction if at all possible. 

Any advice is greatly appreciated!

The Cops were called today and the situation was handled!  Thanks everyone for the help/feedback.

Hi BP,

I just received an email from one of my current tenants regarding issues with another tenant.  How do I address this issue?  Do I reach out directly to the tenant or reach out to the police and let them handle?

Thank you for the help!

"Everybody is having issues and problems with the new tenant She leaves and locks her kids in the basement and she's been having people come in-and-out and today she had somebody pacing out in front of the apartment with no shoes on and then he was racing back-and-forth in front of the apartments in his car"
