I am based in Maryland as well if you ever want to reach out!

I think @Sara Eastler and @Jean Nelsen have already given some great answers, and obviously being based in Birmingham, AL, I know that market best.

Are there any local real estate investment associations based in NoVA?

I know the lender would be putting a lot on the line considering my credit Is not the best and they base just about everthing off of fico.

Pro rated rents have been returned but the questions to this would be the following:--My interpretation of the VA laws and based on the tenants consent to either sell/rent so long as it matures their lease means we should be lawfully entitled to all of their deposit as it was used to pay the marketing/upkeep and closing costs of the home.

Although my company is not based in WA, we are both buyers and private lenders on lower $ ARV SFR properties throughout the U.S.Best of luck and continued success.

@Michael Dunn Based on what you're saying, I think the most important item to research is how much of the areas with the lower priced properties are majority rental areas.

In that case you are determining whether you want to chase low income cash flow vs a better tenant base.

A commercial, asset based loan will probably be your best bet.
