@Juan MontesinoWelcome to BP, and congratulations on making the decision to invest in your future via real estate.I have written a few blog posts that may help you get started here on BP, and with your investing.

The rule, imposed by the five-member condo board, says no one who lives here can publicly disclose information about the community or its governance without the advance, written permission of the board.

And I keep the tenants informed with what is happening. 

If you're married and have lived in your primary 2 of the last five years, you can avoid taxes on a resale up to $500k....A HELOC on your primary will carry very favorable terms...I recently got one for 97%LTV with unbeatable terms...You'll get mixed opinions here about the option to re-fi (some people are calling this BRRRR or something like that)...If you could tell a bit more about what direction you are trying to head with your investment plan I may be able to give a more informed response.

I am looking for a good broker as well, so this was very informational!

There are lenders that will base their lending decisions specifically off the rents received, not off your entire financial situation.

You must gather information to help you decide if the condition of the property is worth putting gobs of money into its ownership.  

My mortgage broker shared this information with me and I thought I would share:http://workshopmortgage.com/blog/blog/2018/04/26/fannie-mae-an-llc-now-real-estate-investors-can-have-both/Actual guidance from Fannie:https://www.fanniemae.com/content/guide/servicing/d1/4.1/02.htmlP.S.

I'll need plenty of additional information, but I suspect this place would be a quality exercise and/or a worthwhile thread for the community if we did it right.
