Hello all, My wife and I are moving through the education process and are curious as to how other investors view the market around Richmond VA. Any thoughts? Thanks

David Michael it depends what your goal is. Are you looking for multi-family or SFR?

    Have you ever considered a little more out west from Powhatan? C'vill and such?

    I'd like to start with a single family but the multi is definitely on the radar. I'm not opposed to a flip here and there either. I've not looked much outside Powhatan. I imagine Cville to be a good developing place though. Have you got experience there?

    @David Michael

    David: Richmond's multifamily market is hot, and the SFR market is even hotter!

    "Up and coming" areas include Northside and Hull St. (near Manchester). Expect multiple offers. Very few sellers will entertain creative financing. 

    I encourage you to get involved in the local investor meetings. I spend 50% of my year in Richmond and regularly meet wholesalers with good deals in transitioning locations. 

    Best of luck to you! I'm happy to recommend a realtor or introduce you to a few folks who might be able to help with your off-market search. Let me know!

    @David Michael

    Richmond is a very hot market right now for investors. The price points are solid, the job market is stable and you can get a good ROI.

    Best of luck.

    @Gregg Hutton I also live in Centreville and am just getting fired up. Are you a local investor or do you invest elsewhere?
