We have a huge influx of people buying in NH at the moment, obviously mostly short-term COVID-related, however I do feel this will be pretty sustained, now that so many people are questioning city life and have realized it IS possible to work from home, so why not do so in an incredibly beautiful place with hardly any crime and tons of outdoor activities?

I'm hoping this program can still be utilized. 

We figure 15k yearly in holding costs, HO insurance, flood insurance, taxes, utilities. 

Whether you’re looking for off-grid living, investment property, or future development, land sales in this area can be a lucrative option.Types of Land: Fairbanks has a variety of land types available, from raw, undeveloped lots to partially improved properties with utilities like electricity or water access.

@Matthew PlatonWould you be able to split the utility bill, and have the tenant pay for their unit?

I personally choose to utilize the traditional LLC for my first few properties and it has treated me well.

Landlord can require tenants to be responsible for separately metered utilities, so can avoid waste.Landlord can get annual small increases in rent.NegativesMost of us don’t treat something we get for free the same way we treat something we’ve worked hard to obtain.S8 applicants claim “broke” and don’t like to pay application feesSame goes for security depositsS8 tenants, in our experience, tend to cause more property damage than non-S8 tenants. - Make sure you get a security deposit and perhaps do a surprise inspection of their current home.S8 requires an inspection (mostly health & safety) before approving a lease and then annually thereafter. - Not something most landlords taking care of their properties have to worry about.There are limits to clauses they allow in your lease.

.- Also found terrible policies that owners had, that they didn't understand.4) Utilities: We check that all utilities are properly set up and cofirm or enroll in any Auto-Transfer of Service programs to avoid no heat during winter leading to frozen pipes.- Dealing with a very upset new owner client right now that previous PMC didn't handle the water account properly.

Because the land already has all the utilities infra that it's needed water, sewer, electricity.
