If you continue filing taxes jointly the income you realize from your separate property will still need to be explained and redacted, regardless of the type of entity holding the real estate.

I looked into this as well since I'm getting terribly bent over on my w-2 taxes. 

Since it’s a new build, I was able to negotiate some great perks, like a 5.875% interest rate, no closing costs, a fridge, blinds, and even a backyard firepit.Pros:Good school districtLow interest rateMinimal CapEx and repairs (because it’s a new build)Low insuranceHigh-quality tenants (due to the school district and being a new build)Cons:Lots of new builds in the area, which could drive down prices and increase vacanciesThe Numbers:Price: $290KInterest Rate: 5.875%Down Payment: 25%Monthly Mortgage + Insurance + Taxes + HOA: $1,480 (I got really low insurance since it’s a new build and Alabama’s property taxes are low)Property Management: 10%Rent: $1,800 (this is under market because I wanted to rent it quickly—most units in the area were sitting vacant for 100+ days.

Secondly, the homeowner would need to cooperate as she would need to submit a bunch of paperwork including income statements, tax returns, etc. for the Short Sale application to show that she is insolvent.  

Selling and buying something else you want keep and doing a cost seg in would help with the tax burden probably better in this situation.

Another common practice for nationally sparse datasets such as tax data is aggregation.

- The percentage difference is the percentage the taxes will go up after you buy it.What do you mean by the property has HVAC AND boilers? 

I would also share pros and cons of paying taxes on the windfall versus owner carry.

I'm starting out doing redeemable tax deeds and going to auctions where everybody has "bigger pockets" than I do.
