Investing just outside DC

Hi,

Can anyone recommend any areas or neighborhoods outside the District that have investment potential. Something within a 30-40 mile radius of Washington? The boom in prices will hopefully be coming down within the next few years but has made investing in Nw, Se etc. near impossible without looking to Anacostia for deals. Anacostia is up and coming but still not there yet. I am also open to looking to Northern Va, even into the outlying country areas. The expansion out there is still booming.

I’m looking to buy and rent. Flipping is too tough and interest rates increasing may make for difficult sells in the next few years. Anyone have any knowledge of the area? Thanks

I moved from this area a couple of years ago…partly for this reason! Try Manassas, Triangle/Quantico, Warrenton, Stafford, and Fredricksburg in Virginia…the Frederick area in Maryland.

There are no real “secret honey holes” the DC metro area…

Have you ever thought about investing in the Baltimore area…If you are looking for some deals in this area let me know what type of property you are looking for and i will do my best to find you a deal that fits your needs

Jes, are you an agent or a rei?

I live in Baltimore, and have been looking at various properties for sometime now. Just waiting for the right one for my first purchase.

What do you have available?

I know the VA market pretty well. You will be surprised how far outside of DC the “halo” of high prices extends. A buy and rent strategy (that is cash positive) will be tough to find.

I am a new investor thats starting out birddogging/wholesaling then im plan on getting into doing buy and hold deals…If you let me know what you are looking for in a deal i will do my best to locate something for you
