Hello all! I am new to BiggerPockets and have been enjoying the Podcast and articles.  I'm 34 years old and a first generation Vietnamese American.  I was born in California and lived a little bit in Michigan. 

I'm excited to start learning! Real estate experience: I paid off my first townhouse 2 months ago and just went under contract for a single family home that I look to move into. I am running through the Conventional Loan application process and a HELOC for the down payment on the new home. Finding rates for a HELOC has been interesting and all new!

Now I need to figure out how to rent out my townhouse in Aurora, CO.  I also need to figure out how to write a lease, land lording tips, etc.  Any help is much appreciated!

Welcome to BP! I live in Denver and am just starting out as well. I would recommend you check out Brandon Turner's Book on Managing Rental Properties. He includes several forms to get you started (including a lease and application). Also, BP just released a Colorado-specific packet of rental forms that will have everything you need at a great price (~$50). Good luck!
