Curious to see how this all worked out. I am in a similar situation, LLC is in Idaho, closing on a house in 2 weeks in New York. Just got a letter today from the Div. of Corp in NY that my LLC's name is too close to one in NY, so we have to do a fictitious name under which we will do business in NY. Once that is approved, do I have to change the details on the contract to the fictitious name? What about the funding, would the buyer change on the paperwork to that new name?

Hi all, Kim Smith here (yes that is my real name!)! My husband and I are just getting into real estate investing after dreaming about it for years! Our plans: buy and hold single family, duplex, triplex and fourplex properties for long term rental income. We are under contract on our first property: a duplex in Jefferson County NY. Trying to figure out the whole funding thing, reading everything I can on options throughout the BP website and binge listening to podcasts! The property has 1 move in ready side and one side that is just drywalled - not a cabinet, sink, or fixture to be seen! Super excited about making this happen, and doing many many more in the future! Also learning some valuable lessons about what a conventional mortgage will and will not fund!! We are also attending our first BP meetup tonight in our town! So excited to meet other folks who decided to take the plunge into REI!

In 2019 I hope, no, I WILL purchase my first and second rental properties, (maybe first by end of 2018 if the numbers check out), become a sponge of all things real estate, and be a good mom and good wife for my family.

Hi there! Surprised to find something local to Twin! Very exciting! New to BiggerPockets, and we are searching for our first rental property now! We are excited to meet like minded folks!
