Since COVID restrictions are starting to relax are there any local meet ups in the NH area? 

Severe restrictions on density keep pushing the city out closer to wildfires.

It's a special town and well situated for real estate investing with easy access to both the Baltimore and Washington DC metro areas. 

I've replaced so many of these over the years & it can be an easy job if the pipe runs are accessible or a nightmare if you need to go through walls.The last one was a MF that had a mixture of Galv & 3/8 water Cu lines connected without any catalytic protection so the joints all had severe galvanic corrosion & were leaking.

The Covid restrictions are going away, and the Meetup for people investing is Dayton is back!

That being said, they may not be doing it directly themselves, for example they may hire an agent who has access to some off-market listings as well as doing a general search on the MLS.

Does anyone know whether or not I can build a box around the meter to allow for me to paint the same color as the brick of the home, and leave it to where the electric company can access? 

You have to be permitted to build on those lots using the development standards in place prior to the Zone Change (setbacks, height restrictions, lot coverage, floor-area-ratio (FAR), minimum unit sizes, etc).

My wife and I faced the same keep as a rental/sell dilemma, and we decided that the best of both worlds would be keeping our home as a rental, while retaining access to equity.

Now the first 2 sections will explain the restrictions that you will face...hopefully those will help some with the understanding of it.
