Doing it this way allows you to ease your way in and costs you less up front - down payment for an owner-occupied property is much lower than an investment property, you may qualify for down payment assistance and can even use funds as a gift from a family member if that's an option. 

We self manage 178iah units, my favorite tip is to use 1/2 in green treat plywood for my tub surround backer, then the surround over top. we caulk it all in tidy, and the use garage door pvc trim to finish out the edges of the surround.

Person A did NOT file form 709 or pay any gift tax for the quit claim deed transfer.
