Welcome to the area Maher! I am an agent who specializes in commission rebates for my clients which really helps their investment numbers, so I find myself working with many investors like yourself.

If you are looking for a place to move yourself before beginning investing, I think you have made a great choice in choosing Virginia over Maryland or DC in terms of the local metro area. You will find the highest number of Arab restaurants/grocers/entertainment here and a great and thriving community.

Hey Aditya and nice to meet you! I'm more than happy to catch up with local experts like yourself. I'm certain that there are many ways for us to collaborate so let's have a chat and discuss how can we work together.

Thanks Julio and appreciate the kind words! What would you say is the most important skill that i have to learn in order to succeed?

I would say figuring out how much research to do to get you to a level of comfort to be able to act but without creating analysis paralysis. It's a very fine balance but crucial to your success!

That indeed is a valuable and a smart tip. I'll make sure to keep that in mind 👍

We are on the Eastern shore of Maryland as well :) We run the local REI (Delmarva REI) and have meetups once a month in Salisbury MD. If you want to learn more on the Eastern shore market, then you can just search the event on bigger pockets for more details.

That will actually be great! Do you have a meetup group as well or events are just posted here? I will be flying in couple of weeks and I can attend for sure if it's around the same time.

Hey everyone,

This is Maher, gearing up for a big adventure! I'm planning to move to the US from abroad this year and am on the lookout for some amazing people to join my journey.

I'd like to connect with investor-friendly experts such as wholesalers, agents, contractors, and money lenders, or anyone who could be a potential business partner. My initial plan is to flip houses in Northern Virginia. Thus, I've been conducting a lot of analysis and preparing my action plan accordingly. While I'm new to the States, I'm not new to Real Estate Investment (REI). I've got a treasure trove of experience from my time in Dubai and have enjoyed great success. Sure, the market dynamics there are as different from the US as apples are from oranges, but hey, they're both fruit, right? I'm doing my homework, setting my targets, and I'm ready to dive in.

I'm more than happy to connect with like-minded people in Northern Virginia. I'd also appreciate any tips from expert house flippers on how to penetrate the market.

I've always been blessed with meeting the right people and partners in my previous journeys and am looking forward to making that happen again.

Thank you all in advance!

Most of the flips in NOVA will be in Arlington and Alexandria. Not impossible in other locations, but certainly less in areas like Fairfax.

Thanks Russel! is it the same for places like Loudoun and Prince William counties?

I’ve flipped in the dc area for years, right now there is just money & in the vast majority of cases there is high likelihood of losing money, right now the best investments in the area imo are buy & hold, I’ve even gone full circle and while I really liked value add for most of the last decade I think in a lot of ways new construction especially in more affordable markets (I’m personally a big fan of the eastern shore market) is a much better way to make money long term than flipping and brrring while I know they are sexy & certainly you getting a huge paycheck is great, there just isn’t any money in it right now, especially in nova.

Hey Jack,

Thank you for sharing your thoughts! What about places further to the south like Stafford and Prince William? Will the chances be better?
