Im in NOVA as well, PBMares is who you want.

Hi BP, has anyone had success in luxury house hacking in the San Diego area, specifically coastal north county (Del Mar-Carlsbad)?

I know because I see them on Meetup.com, but I'm sticking to NOVA. 

I'm in Raleigh as well and we have 2 STRs in Western NC,  Ours are in Mars Hill, NC (about 45 mins north of Asheville) in a community called Wolf Laurel. 

The only thing I noticed was a slight dip in showings during Mar/Apr. 

I've been interested in markets out east (Nova Scotia, New Brunswick) or possibly somewhere in Alberta, as the purchase prices seem to be much more attainable for a newbie, but again I'd love to get some insight form more experienced investors!

Bryan, was is your outlook for the selling season beginning in Feb/Mar coming up? 

Lexie, thanks for the heads up on multi-family properties in NOVA.

Silver line extension in NoVa? 

The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood; who strives valiantly; who errs, who comes short again and again, because there is no effort without error and shortcoming; but who does actually strive to do the deeds; who knows great enthusiasms, the great devotions; who spends himself in a worthy cause; who at the best knows in the end the triumph of high achievement, and who at the worst, if he fails, at least fails while daring greatly, so that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who neither know victory nor defeat.”
