Getting a referral from a fellow investor is OK, however that contractor may be good for the referee, but could be not so good for someone else.Contractors are special individuals - they too are chasing the buck and trying to get the best deal possible.You may want to write specifications  of what you want done - once you know what you want you can better compare bids from workman.I have found that meeting real people with real tools at a time they are buying supplies and materials at Home Depot 5:30 - 6 am picking up stuff to do their daily work is sometimes an effective way to find the craftsman you are looking for at a price that will serve you well.Getting referrals is OK - but how do you know that they didn't over-charge the person who is referring you to them?

I have contacted the sellers agent and they are willing to share financials with me when I sign a CA. 

There are a lot of financial planners out there who will tell you to pay off student loan debt before investing in RE.

There will be government help that may offset your losses enough to help you keep afloat financially.

However being a millennial I think Nashua and southern NH is finally catching up and trying to draw a different type of individual to NH.

That person with no rental history and nobody to vouch for them financially wouldn't pass my criteria.

I'm a local business owner here and always have been interested in commercial real estate (shopping/strip center or individual shops) I'm in the automotive industry so my ultimate goal would be to buy and rent warehouses/auto shops.
