I’m a proud union Ironworker apprentice with Local 5 here in Baltimore, Maryland.

I’ve heard from Forbes that local lenders in Omaha tend ot waive fees if you bundle accounts.By the way, has anyone here used HELOC funds for mid-term rentals?

Getting out to the local meetups, in my opinion, is one of the most important things we all can do as investors. 

Should I have my local friends stay in the Airbnb and give me reviews so that I can get the ball rolling? 

I know building a reliable local network will be key, so I'm hoping to connect with experienced real estate team in the area.The military presence in Jacksonville catches my eye, and I'm particularly interested in properties that might appeal to military personnel and the associated contractors.

Current ownership was not local, and didn't have a presence anymore.

I hit up a local wine distributor and pickup wine boxes (wooden ones) they give away to anyone who wants them.

If you are looking to house hack in our local neck of the woods, I recommend reaching out to @Josh Green.

Try some local small banks or look in the tools on BP

We are in the Las Vegas area , decided to go with two well know local property management companies .
