Here is a meetup in the OCOC Real Estate Investor Networking - Tax Tricks Every Investor Should Know (biggerpockets.com)Good Investing...

It's time, though, for me to expand into new opportunities and learn more tricks of the trade to grow a robust portfolio.

Just be open about it with your lender and they will help you out.If you intend on managing the rental on your own, I'd recommend searching the forums for tips/tricks on dealing with renters.

The problem is that the majority do exactly that, but a great professional real estate agent knows what boxes to check and the tricks of the trade.

Need help finding a duplex … tips, tricks, advice, or properties welcome!
