Almost every day a doctor will ask me toward the end of our of consultation, "Scott, you look at locations all the time. Is there anywhere I should consider?" When I first started answering that question, I would get all kinds of heat from those who thought I had some kind of agenda.
Nope, no agenda. But I AM being more cautious than I once was. So take this with a grain of salt:
Prince William County DEFINTELY has some potential. (Ditto for Loudoun County) New "big box" stores are the key indicator of new neighborhoods, office sites, and expanded traffic areas. There are several developments that are opening up and several general practices considering their options. This is NOT a "room for one more" situation. We believe that general practices as well as specialists may want to take a look at the Counties and decide for themselves.
On the other hand, we have been much cooler on Maryland (for the most part although some neighborhoods have been showing great potential). So what makes the difference? TAXES!
There are few locations where the differences between state tax policies have had as dramatic a contrast as in the Mid-Atlantic region. We are not in the business of pitching states JUST BECAUSE they have lower taxes but it is a "no duh" moment when we see how lower taxes affect growth both in populatinos and employment.
