Problem I've had with my online research and with driving around the Woodbridge,  Manassas, and Occoquan areas is that the pricing is so high compared to down here so deals don't jump out at me as easily.

But I've read too much about how easily the corporate veil cN be pierced without a well written OpAgreement.  

Currently have one property that I am managing myself and looking to expand our holdings.  

@Emilio Basa I invest locally so for me I found it easiest to call banks that are local to my community and then expand to a 50 - 100 mile radius.

there is a BP member who publish's a list of the coming foreclsoures in some area of NC>. its pretty nice.. helps a tonI looked at sales there you have a very convoluted way to buy them you bid and someone can upset you.. etc.but generally speaking someone who will pay near retail and is either going to buy and hold and or live in it.. can EASILY compete... becaseu your competition wants EQUITY instantly and wants to rehab flip for profit or wholesale for profit.. if your willing to pay more this should be a slam dunk for you.

Yes you're right there is a lot of competition out there for MLS deals, because they are the most easily found.

Looking forward to a prosperous future while learning and expanding my network.Best,Tara Mitchell

Looking to expand the collection so it's good to hear from other Michigan investors!

I am looking to expand my passive income, grow my real estate portfolio, learn some new skills, meet some new people and perhaps find a deal or two in the Phoenix area. 

Not to mention Harrison Hospital is expanding their facilities and bed capacity by 45% over the next four years.
