First time investor - learning/planning stage - target market Shenandoah Valley

[Jared Rice]

My wife and I are aspiring first-time investors currently doing everything we can to educate ourselves and plan for our first property. We are targeting an STR vacation home in the Shenandoah Valley area.

I work full time in IT and my wife runs her own Interior Design business. We hope that STR investing and management can replace and grow our current income and help us build family wealth.

Hey @Jared Rice, welcome to the BP Forum! What type of properties are you seeking, SFR, 2-4 MF, or 5+ MF? What is your price range/down payment amount? Are you looking for turn-key properties or something along the lines of a "fixer upper"?
