Maybe it'll be better here:I'm a broker in Oregon and Washington, and I'm trying to wrap my head around wholesaling.

@Matt Taylor Run this deal with a local to Washington Market.Don't be scared, just make sure you are are not coming out of pocket more than you can handle.

Also, I see you are in the Rockville area, we are hosting a investor meet up on July 12th in Washington DC if interested.Best,Good luck! 

I am an investor in the Maryland/DC/Virginia area.

I am looking for someone in WA that is investor friendly.  

For credit score requirements, Washington state law discourages setting minimum scores unless a "business necessity" is demonstrated.

DC being tiny has a single recorder of deeds database. 

I think one really great feature about the area is that you are less than a 2 hour drive to VA Beach, the mountains and Washington, DC.What are some of the things you and your family like to do?

Now I live on the east coast (DC area) and I look at Stockton real estate and it looks quite attractive from here. 

For the District of Columbia, is there a template or any advice on what works to challenge property tax assessment increases?
