I’ve been searching the web and RE sites, and have found a few places out of state where the numbers look really good for cash flow and CoC return, and I’m ready to start viewing the properties and making the next steps.My question to the community is this; is it better to have my own realtor with me to go through discussions and negotiations, or would it be okay to use the sellers realtor (assuming that is who is listed as the realtor on each site)?

If you can do conventional with owner occupied 5-10% might work too.Buy with fundamentals in mind, dont buy for speculation but what can you reasonably increase rents for and cash flow.

As a broker, establishing valuation to take a property to market involves understanding the fundamental metrics that are involved.

You can choose online options such as social media ads, YouTube videos or web pages.

@Cinda HammHi Cinda,Don't run the Ozone machine with any people or animals in the house.It will harm them, and may kill them as well as well as the smell.Also when it's done it will take a while for the Ozone to abate, so don't rush right in, wait a while.Machine probably doesn't say that, say that, but it's on the web in quite a few places.Good Luck!

In your area, you might consider https://emeraldcoastbyowner.com - a number of hosts that I'm in touch with report good results.I'm further south (Tampa Bay) and also list on https://www.floridarentalbyowners.com/ and https://www.floridarentals.com - have had some inquiries but no bookings yet.I'd also recommend getting your own web site set up so you can accept direct bookings, particularly from repeat guests - we've been doing this for a few years now and our repeat bookings continue to grow year over year, and having a direct-booking option has worked well for us.If you're not interested in setting up your own web site and booking back-end, maybe take a look at https://www.houfy.com/ set up a listing and refer your repeat guests to your Houfy listing.

In my opinion, you might be better going from a large market like Boston to a market with some solid fundamentals to ease your way into out of state investing - if you're looking to be in NH, then Manchester is probably your best bet. 

While there is a good bit of discussion here on the BP forums, not all of it is comprehensive or even accurate... the nature of web forums. 

Also to look online using apps or web to pull up rentals in the area.   

This is a fundamental rule to finance that most on the site get backwards as well, including those that promote the brrr strategy.
