Lots of local investors here in the DMV 

I'm a 100% committed student of the real estate industry.

I've done a number of seller financed deals as a buyer. 

These guys did this for over 20 years .. it was determined that they actually made less than 12 loans in the whole time bringing in Millions of dollars 10k at a time to small of an amount to sue over..

Just a member who has found a lot of value in the group.  

Also, focus on 2 years of job/income stability.Class D Properties:Cashflow vs Appreciation: Typically, all cashflow with little, maybe even negative, relative rent & value appreciationVacancy Est: 20%+ should be used to cover nonpayment, evictions & damages.Tenant Pool: majority will have FICO scores under 560 (almost 30% probability of default), little to no good tradelines, lots of collections & chargeoffs, recent evictions.

That’s where a lot of investors struggle.If you’re interested, happy to share more insights or resources to help you strategize.

I'm in a number of social groups for private lenders and have run into a lot of scams.

I’m getting ready to make my next move in 2025 and I’m contemplating on staying here and buying a multi family property as an investment out of state (only an hour away) which would be a lot less capital and have a lot more land lord friendly laws or buy another multifamily as a primary residence locally and hack that property I’m single and live alone.

I still consider land one of the best low-risk investments when purchased correctly.
