Not only would you benefit from having a partner's input on the deal, but you would also have an experienced individual to work alongside with as you navigate the project.It's also important to make sure you have identified your "team" ie; contractors / realtors / lenders / insurance agents / title company / etc. 

Get a DBA and use to open a business bank account.Have your properties "hire" the DBA to manage your rentals and collect rents.Most states require a lease to identify the owner of a leased property, whether a person, trust, LLC, IRA, etc.Landlord = Lord of the Land = Owner per deedAgent = someone legally representing the ownerProperty Manager = Agent

In order of priority, I would put title company after GC, lender, insurance broker, real estate agent(s), inspectors, and several trades.

It is important to consult with a real estate agent with knowledge of how panels affect your properties value.

Milton and Farmington can be excellent choices, too, often with more budget-friendly options and the chance to add value in less saturated areas, might have better cash flow luck here.For lenders and agents, I'd recommend networking with those who have experience specifically in the NH Seacoast markets since these towns can vary in terms of tenant demographics and rental demands.

According to the brokerage and agent, these individuals either weren’t serious or claimed they didn’t realize the property was occupied, even though it was clearly stated in the listing.I’m not particularly concerned about the property’s condition or the eviction process, as I’ve already secured some level of cooperation and have basic access to the basement.

I recommend you contact a residential banker and a commercial real estate agent and start looking at deals right now, even before you are ready to buy.
