You may want to find a good agent in the southern NH area as I'm hearing that market is prime for investment with people moving up from MA, but your other markets might be just as solid.Also, since you're already an agent, it's pretty easy to get your reciprocal license for NH or RI.

Best of luck moving forward with your sale though!

Hi Mike-Congratulations on being a first time investor and you are wondering when to start using a property manager.The property manager is probably the most important person on you team.

Tenants like to set up insurance, show proof to the Landlord, and then immediately cancel the policy after moving in.

Everything on my side was set to close, and then today the seller is refusing to close on Monday as they have not moved a few pieces of furniture they were supposed to get movers for.

I have a robust team of mortgage lenders, title companies and RE attorneys.

You'll have to keep me posted on your next move! 

Way too many moving parts to predict it and the bull is in the China shop right now breaking things. 

@Cole Harris what's the benefit of making the move? 

HELOCs let you access equity as needed, keeping costs low unless you use the funds.Key considerations: If you plan to scale quickly, the HELOC might provide the liquidity you need for faster moves.
