New Investor from Northern Virginia
Hello all. I am starting down the path of real estate investing here in the Northern Virginia area. I am trying to just get as much information from BP that I can. I upgraded to PRO because I thought it was a small price to pay for all the information that BP has been able to offer.
I was in the mortgage business for about 10 years before the crash so I have a little bit of insight but so many things have changed.
I am basically looking to set myself up for retirement. I am not sure which avenue to take yet. It seems in my basic research, so far, that buying rental properties in my area may not work as the housing prices are so high. I may start looking for houses to flip and then maybe I can wholesale a deal or 2 along the way to give me some seed money.
I am not sure what else I was supposed to include in this introduction. I hope it is not too long. Thanks to all the people who have gone before and are lending their knowledge through blog entries, podcasts, and in other ways.
