Are there any groups or upcoming events that I could possibly partake in?

Go ahead and take 2 minutes to read the full bill for yourself. http://www.gencourt.state.nh.us/legislation/2020/HB1391.htmlAs a dog owner, pet lover, and a landlord who allows and welcomes pets, I am the last person to oppose something like this and yet I have serious concerns about this bill. 

However, most lenders will only allow HELOCs up to 70% LTV on investment properties (as opposed to 90-95% on primary residences), and the rates aren't as attractive, whereas you can get 30-yr fixed loans up to 80% LTV on investment properties.Curious why you are going for HELOCs as opposed to fixed mortgages? 

There can be instances when there are transfers/contributions between a member of an LLC and its member.The great thing about LLC's and partnership vehicles is that it is not considered a "taxable" event when you transfer property from a member to the LLC.I.E.

What are the pros and cons as opposed to obtaining 30 year financing?

Look up on the event section of BP for network opportunities.

I would try to hold the property a bit longer because of the fact that if you build up enough equity, you can then at least net 0 in the next few years as opposed to taking a flat out loss. 

@Philip Doetsch there are some great local networking events that happen here in Kenosha and Racine that you should check out.

I encourage you to look for a full service platform as opposed to a piecemeal or free solution. 

My experience is that we simply have more problems with the tenant base at our class B-/C property as opposed to the Class B+/A- asset we own.
