While I love the idea of eventually owning a paid-off primary residence, I’m debating whether it’s smarter to sell our current house and use the equity as a down payment on the new home or to keep it as a rental.

Same idea. 3.

Feel free to reach out if you have questions or want to brainstorm ideas!

In the meantime I would love to have some helpful information or ideas to share with the buyers when we meet and ideally an agreement/contract we could fill out together once new terms are agreed to and then share that with the attorney so he could draft up the formal instrument for recording.If you have experience with this type of scenario, I’d love to hear any recommendations you have or any helpful resources you could point me to for the appropriate paperwork.Under foreclosure laws, you have to send appropriate notices and try to work with the borrower and offer a loan mod before foreclosure anyway. 

Quote from @Rachel Jane: First post, no idea what I’m doing, lolMy grandfather passed away and left me his condo, which is fully paid off (and located in a seniors residence) It’s worth approx $500,000 (CAD).

I am creating a LLC in MD and am looking for a Resident Agent. Has anybody have used a good one in MD? 
Thanks.

Property taxes and insurance costs are best obtained through local county websites or reaching out to insurers directly for quotes specific to the area.Tools like BP Pro and Reventure can be helpful for an overview, but it’s a good idea to validate their data against primary sources to ensure accuracy.

I had no idea what they were talking about until I dared ask for more detail.

It'd be a good idea to work with lenders who have found their niche working with investors.
