Rental income is not considered interest or dividend income so you may not have to pay any taxes to New Hampshire.However, as a resident of MA - you will be required to report worldwide income which would include your income from NH.Nowadays - proximity to your accountant isn't as important as choosing an accountant who is knowledgeable in real estate taxation.You should interview a couple CPA's on BP and see who you connect with.

Just find the right place and run the numbers as if it was being rented to a family instead of "will it work for the first year with 3 of my buddies renting rooms."  

@Aaron Vargas You have two options for Primary residence 1) FHA with 3.50% down payment 2) 5% down payment with Home Possible.

Hello @Case Roos,I'm new to "Real Estate" as an investor, I have my primary residence with equity I'd like to use to buy/hold rentals and then move away from the stock market roller coaster into cash flow + equity in real estate.I'm just trying to find something to jump into and get my feet wet.I'm looking to start by buying and holding in Oregon as it's where I was born n raised, but would eventually like to also buy out of state.Do you do the fixes yourself or have a small team you work with to get it all done?

I currently residing in New Orleans, LA.

You will likely only report the rental income/losses in the state the property is located in.You will then be required to file a PA resident tax return where you report worldwide income.

@abrahamanderson Don't listen to others that say "stay in your lane" and out of playgrounds.This IS your lane, it's an amenity for your residents and as far a liability is concerned, reach out to your insurance provider to ensure you are properly insured and you should be fine. 

Seems like you met Lisa already.Terry Did you see your buddy Bill has ventured to the dark side. 😂 🤗🙁.You may be right for all we know. 

Hi guys,Today I stumbled upon an off market deal that has some really great potential, it's a 4 plex located about thirty minutes from my residence; the issue that I have is that the 4 plex is seperated out into both residential and commercial units...there are 3 units upstairs, all three of them are 2 bedroom 1 bathroom apartments being rented out for $500/month each, and then a commercial unit downstairs that is being rented for $800/month. 

I was presented with this tenant and told that I would have to accept that i could not do a background check due to his residency status being so new (again, not true, evictions going back to 2014).
