My offer on a 1,632 square foot duplex was accepted. I am considering adding central air but need to get quotes. I am NC. Where do I start looking for quotes and who should I talk to? Looking forward to your feedback.

Shop around for local lender and get the best deal. $130k salary will get you a lot of offers (depending on your debt of course). 

I would shop around?

@Mike H I was under the impression that a Broker would shop around for you and use his connections to find a local bank with good rates willing to do a commercial loan for your properties.

People shop for  vacation rentals so you need to respond regularly.  

It's a modest duplex with projected positive cash-flow.We'd like to shop for a CPA but not too sure what to look for other than whether they have Real Estate experience and if we can find any customer reviews on them.  

I'm sure this is a small, affordable, community that you can setup shop in.Financing - I prefer to buy with cash at well below market and then get it rent ready.  

I would recommend going to these and hooking up with some investment shops to intern with over the summer..They will have plenty of stuff for you to do and you will get hands on experience.Cheers,Wm

Definitely worth getting in touch with him to talk shop.

I just got a conventional loan for 4.125%.Gather your personal, financial and property information and start shopping around.
