Welcome Back Northern Virginia Real Estate Investors -- Example scenario
Posted by Jay Seville on Thursday, December 4th, 2008 at 6:53am.Good Times for Real Estate Investment Properties in Northern Virginia Arlington
For the past 5 years it has been next to impossible for true real estate investors to come out with positive cash flow for their real estate investments by renting out the property. That has changed now and the opportunities for good real estate investments are abundant in Northern Virginia and Arlington, VA. Let\'s quickly look at an example.
This morning I came across a brand new foreclosure in Arlington. It\'s a 2BR at The Carlton with 1100 sq ft. It\'s located in Arlington and is about a 7 minute drive to Clarendon or 10 min to 395. The list pricei is $160,000. If you put down 20% you end up with about a $920 monthly payment. Add the $542 condo fee and you end up at $1450 month in expenses. What did the last 2BR 1BA rent for? $1650/month. So there you have it--a true investment opportunity for real estate investors in Northern Virginia and Arlington VA.

Ready to Begin Investing in Real Estate for Long Term Landlording + Equity + Tax Incentives?
It's been years since one could find investment properties that required 20-30% down to help you break even with your monthly cash flow. It\'s indicative of a more balanced market and is exciting for people who understand the long term potential real estate investing brings versus flipper bullcrap where half those that try do so late and get burned....

When one brings into the tax breaks for the home it comes out nice for the investor annually. And all along somebody else is building up your equity in the home. Imagine having 5 of these when you retire all paid off? You\'re getting $3000/month rent from all 5 each month and you have $250,000 in equity or $300,000 in all 5 places. $1,500,000 of net equity and $15,000 in cash flow to your bank account in additiont to other monthly income you have. Perhaps leave one property each to a grandchild to help fund their college ed or to support charities in which you believe passionately....
Townhouses Rule the Day in Virginia Investment Properties
And this is not necessarily the best example--townhouses are usually better because then you cancel out the monthly condo fee thereby greatly improving the price of home you can invest in and improving your monthly cash flow balance in a positive direction.
Interested in true real estate investing? Contact me. Often these opportunites are time sensitive so you need to be prepared in advance with financing ,etc. If you\'re monthly expenses are covered and your money is otherwise wasting away in a money market, then youv\'e got much to gain....

Hello Investors,
You can't judge a book by its cover!
Let's talk about consistency in Real Estate Investing arena and little known facts about certain companies. I invest mainly in the Dover, DE area through my company Curtain Bird, LLC.
We recently started investing in the Philadelphia, Pennsylvania area. I called a Real Estate Wholesaler in the North Philly area, Nahab Properties, LLC. It was located on a first floor apartment on 26th Street Philadelphia, PA. I was very apprehensive and wondered if this agency could really serve my interests.
I was called to their office by Mr. Cropps the CEO of Nahab Properties, LLC, which is operated out of an old row-home in North Philadelphia. The area was crime ridden so I was also very sceptical. Again wanting to know if they could help me with my Real Estate investing needs given their location. The building looked fine but the area did leave a lot to be desired. I had not heard of Nahab Properties, LLC.
I had seen his listings in various ads placed on http://www.craigslist.org. Mr. Cropps explained that he runs a little web-site http://www.nahabproperties.com. Well, I have found several properties that I did, in fact, purchase from him, via an assignment of contract. I later found out that the CEO of Nahab Properties, LLC is also a General Contractor in the city and is involved in several projects estimated worth $19,000,000. His company also imports and exports building materials to contractors throughout the United States with a staff of about 20 employees throughout America. This guy is into everything related to Real Estate.
To top this off, he took me to his competitor, Deals of Philly, LLC. I meet the CEO, a woman named S. (Samirah) Thomas. She operates a web-site for Real Estate investors called
http://www.dealsofphilly.com. She sold me four more properties. What seems funny is, the fact that she is located in the same building but on the second floor, that's right the same address on 26th Street in North Philadelphia. She also "DOES IT ALL! She purchases single family homes (via assignment of contract). She buys and sells apartment buildings and her company does about $7,000,000 in business.
I thought, "WOW!" In the Real Estate business you never know where you will find your next deal. But I truly thought I would be wasting my time until I met these very charming and accommodating people. I asked them, why have such a successful business in an area that does not reflect their status. I was informed that they have a need to "FIGHT THE BLIGHT". By being located where there is a need to rejuvenate the housing system, they both "FIGHT THE BLIGHT", one property at a time. That thought captured my heart and also my wallet. At that particular time, I bought those other properties from Deals of Philly, LLC. I want to feel like more than just a business man. Buying there in that neighborhood made me feel as if I too, was helping to "FIGHT THE BLIGHT".
Upon leaving, I asked Mr. Cropps, (the CEO Of Nahab Properties, LLC) why would he introduce me to his competitor? He smiled with a grin that covered his while face and " I'm here to provide you a service. I want you to come back to me. If I don't have what you need, then I should refer you to someone who does." I told him with great assurance, "I will be back." Wow! You can't judge a book by its cover!
