@Richard Phan I've always had a mentor no matter what area of real estate investing I went into.

Adding my 0.02 here too as a NH and Mass investor:100% agree one needs to really know Manchester in order to invest since multi's there are still under-taxed in my honest opinion - this will eventually catch up as the city gentrifies.Rochester is VERY tricky and I can't really make any additional comments there with the exception of for those local folks, there is definitely money to be made.

I have a background in construction and I am currently taking the course for a NH real estate license.

@Marc Rice from our brokerage (Reafco) does a ton of airbnb rentals an he could give you more detail on it.

If you wanted to run the "Fix" expenses separate from the "Hold" expenses, you could enter each property twice (once with an F and once with an H), for example.

@Anh Le, unless you reckon that the Condo is worth a lot MORE than $295k, why would you want it anyway?

@Anh Truong I'm not answering most of your questions due to fair housing.??

REO's usally don't close on time, so 2 REO deals of mine have been extended and extended... but only one needed taxes lowered but it was a NH steal paying $17k with an  "as is" value $45-50k so I'm willing to wait and miss the tax grievance deadline.Vermont is also expensive closing costs as lawyers handle the closings and not escrow companies.
