I'm thinking this would land somewhere in the C+ or B class property.

I have a flip that does not have a working A/C unit. I have tight margins so I'm wondering if I should just do a regular A/C replacement or replace it with a heat pump to create a great selling point and maybe even in...

I know it's not great to bet on appreciation.

Husband-wife LLC can be disregarded for tax purposes, and the flip reported directly on Schedule C (or Sch E if it was rented) of your personal joint tax return, without a separate tax return for the LLC.It can only get complicated if you and your wife file separately, or if you have some reason to file a separate tax return for your LLC.

Would it be safest to buy on the A-B transaction & not the B-C? Or

If its in a C or D area, and you mess with peoples dogs, they will confront you physically and it could be very dangerous. 

Also, don't bet on appreciation.

In fact, these measures can be extremely handy as quick and easy INITIAL evaluations of a SPECIFIC type (SFR, Multi, Office, Retail, Industrial, etc) and class (A, B, C, or D) of property, in a SPECIFIC market, at a SPECIFIC point in time, with a SPECIFIC lease structure.
