I live in the Columbia City region of Seattle, Washington.  

Anything West Washington Blvd gets into lower quality homes, tenants, and rents are lower.

Wondering what if any options there are for a new investor wanting to find a home for her own family without using their own cash or credit (in dc/md/va area??

We did that so we could sell a couple of our apt buildings over 3 calendar years and avoid the excise transfer taxes here in WA, which you don't have to pay if 50% is not sold in one given year.  

I am looking to get into multifamily real estate (starting with small 2-10 unit properties) in southwest Washington and wondering about the whole offer and purchasing process so I can better plan out my path.

DC had a great REI scene.

Hi, Im Fiona.I am very new at all this, I would like to learn about Washington State and Wholesaling.

I am doing a lot of research into Washington State, but am still no closer to finding which County may be a good start to look for wholesaling deals? 

Having failed at wholesaling for the past two years, I had a deal in DC (posted in marketplace, now accepting all offers for review) that led to me building a buyers list in less than a week!

I have a very motivated seller who lives in San Diego, but owns 2 homes in Tacoma WA.
