Anyone who is advertising an "easy way", you are the product.

@James Wise , I agree that engaging with petty disputes isn’t productive.

For example, if they need a quick sale, emphasize your ability to close fast.

On most small MF that get listed for sale, the owner lost interest years ago and management attention is in a steady decline until something triggers the sale.

The reason is the rent-to-price ratio is good so you can cash flow, and most of the West side doesn’t have a Point of sale inspection which is really annoying.

I just listed my last property for sale, a fourplex in Pocatello, because now I focus more on commercial RE and syndications to be a true passive investor and not deal with tenants and repairs.

So, if your father transfers his ownership to you and you cannot work with your aunt then you can force a sale.

Reason I ask this is I believe a famous name doesn't necessarily mean the business is well-run, it also does not mean it is not well run.I have seen it from both sides where there are well run companies and We have a borrower who is pretty well known, was just seen on a red carpet, is a great sales and marketer, but is being sued by everyone and anyone because of defaults. 

Will your property tax rate go up after the sale? 

The key is that in order to completely defer all tax you must purchase at least as much as your net sale.
