thx for posting this, rich. I

Rich - I feel honored getting responses from you.

RichI want to add a few things to your post.

@Trevor EwenWell, my husband works for Capital One, which has a Very large campus down here in Richmond (appx 10K employees), and a smaller one up in Tysons Corner (DC area), so there are lots of people who relocate down and back up related to Capital One.On the other hand, Richmond, while still being very culturally rich, is much more family friendly, and pocketbook friendly.

Hey Rich,I have a bit of experience in that area as I'm also on the lookout for good prospective deals out there for new development as I work as a builder, but good deals are few.
