@Nick Macklin That is so exciting! Welcome to the area!!

It really depends on what you value more and what kind of numbers you're working with.  Virginia Beach will have many highly ranked schools, but it's also more expensive than the surrounding neighborhoods.  Norfolk would definitely have more options in terms of proximity to NS Norfolk and properties to rehab.  Norfolk also has many more multi-family properties if you'd like to have a property with an extra unit!

Are you moving here for the military?

@Danielle Bulla Isenhour  OMG Danielle!! What a huge accomplishment!!!!  That is so amazing that the they were able to live there during the rehab.  Were they still able to function ok between kitchen and bathroom rehabs?  I know live-in rehabs can be tough; especially when it's someone else living there!

Hi @Marcus Ivery!  Of course!!!  Have you tried ABNB?  I'd be happy to send you the contact info for one of the lenders there that works with investors.

Hi @Jack Temple!! Welcome to the BP Forums!

I'm not in the area, but you can try going to BiggerPockets.com > Network (in the top ribbon) > Real Estate Agents > and filter by that zip code. It'll help you find some amazing investor-friendly agents in that particular area.

I also highly recommend meeting a few investors to find out who they use as an agent. Have you been to any of the local meetups there?

@Qadre Lewis  Congrats!!! That is so exciting!! I'd definitely say to start reading some books and listening to some podcasts.  I highly recommend The Millionaire Real Estate Agent by Gary Keller to get you going!  Have you heard of it?

Hey @Bryana Harris!!!!  Congrats on getting started in real estate!!!  What kind of resources are you looking for?  Are you looking for a network to tap into or funds?

@Qadre Lewis  That's awesome!!!  What kind of classes are you taking?

@Alyssa Feliciano Yes!  You are totally on the right track.  I'd also see if you can look at the local government's website to see if they have future development plans that you can find.  It'll give you an idea of where the local communities are putting their money to find what the potential future growth will be.

What areas have you been looking into?

@Luis Rivera This is such a good question!  I've had a great time catching up some readings I've wanted to do.  What new things are you doing?
