I am an active duty military member that will be stationed at Walter Reed Bethesda, MD and I will only be station there for a few years. I have no experience and this will be my first house. I am looking for a real estate investing/ house hack friendly properties. I'm also looking for something in the Bethesda or anything close to this location. Good cash flow potential area. I will probably rent by the room/house hacking and wanted to know where I could find the laws and regulations for Maryland. Thanks in advance.
Welcome to MD soon.
Id recommend doing a rent by the room situation in Rockville, Gaithersburg or Silver Spring. The occupancy limit is 5 unrelated people in a property in Montgomery County. So optimally you can get 4 roommates, that should bring in between $3,000-$4,000 a month extra.
Of course finding a 5 BR might be a little tough depending on price point.....4 bedrooms is probably a better bet.
Rockville and Silver Spring are where most of my rentals are (followed by DC) and I live in Gaithersburg. Feel free to reach out with any questions.
If anyone can help you find a suitable rental property, it's Russell. He's one of the best in the area for investment properties and knows the area like the back of his hand.
Welcome to MD soon and thanks for your service. I grew up about 2 blocks from Walter Reed and doubt you'll be disappointed with the area unless you're coming from somewhere with palm trees. 😁
