Hi Akiem,
My name is Mario and I am an investor local to Hampton Roads. I work primarily out of Norfolk. The market in Norfolk is on the rise, with property values increasing, inventory dwindling, and rehabs underway on every corner. It is a very exciting time. Norfolk is turning a corner with new jobs, new schools, and public/private ventures financing growth and development throughout the city. With that said, I assure you that investing in Norfolk is a step in the right direction.
At this time, I have several off-market properties that I think would meet your needs to include a 3200 sqft duplex which would be the perfect house-hack property. The smaller downstairs unit is a 3/1, just shy of 1100 sqft, with w/d hookup. This unit would be ideal for a landlord/tenant while the larger 4/2.5 unit could serve a larger family, with rents to cover the entire property. If you are interested, please contact me and we can discuss further.
