Yes NOVA is one of the hottest markets in the country.

Greetings, I and a friend live in the NoVa area right outside of DC.

I'm in Mars Hill and 45 mins north of Asheville. 

I am investing in Halifax, Nova Scotia now even though I live in Kitchener, Ontario.  

And I was told once they pour foundation on Mar 17th (Which I have no idea if they have) will take another 6months to close..

I’m looking for any local investors in the Winchester, Va area, NOVA, or WV?

I don't know much about the SW side down closer to the Airport (Mars Hill/Drexel Gardens) or the NW side heading towards Lawrence (Brightwood/Devington).

What is your rationale for picking these areas over NOVA? 

Hey buddy I live in Nova Scotia Canada and I am virtually wholesaling in NC, I have studied Jamil Damji's book "How to Wholesale Real Estate: The No-Cash Strategy to Build a Scalable Business" there is a section specifically where he advises agent outreach, I have followed this by contacting 10 agents a day everyday to build a CRM of agents that send me deals, both on market and off market, it has taken some time but I have decent deal flow now and they have a vested interest when they send a deal and are for the most part willing to go see the property for you, take pics, get infrastructure info etc. just make sure if you are using agents that on the state purchase and sale agreements permits you to assign the contract otherwise you will need to include an addendum in the contract to allow you to do so.
