I am wondering if anyone in the New England Area, Especially New Hampshire or Massachusetts Area has done it or may even know of a local source?  

I know people who source their own deals and people that work with Realtors here in Columbus, Ohio.

We would like to hand this off to a bookkeeper to get all of our accounting in order but we are having a difficult time finding a good source for this.

I have a very close friend who would like to provide me some seed money to source some real estate deals.

I am new to RE investing and have been learning from podcasts, books, and other sources of info for the past few months.

But other sources online seem to indicate that it's OK to rent out a second home as long as you live there yourself at least 10% of the rented out days or 14 days, whichever is higher. 

How are my fellow loan officers/mortgage brokers sourcing deals and leads right now ?

There are other courses you could take but they're pricey and right now you should be able to find plenty of info through the sources I provided to get started.
