Hi Justin, Happy to help you out if you're still looking for these items. 

@Justin R.Can’t say I’ve had to deal with it personally but gifting or selling a part of a property comes with several implications: how to take title, right of lender to call the loan, right to partition, gift tax, property tax reassessment, capital gains, etc.Also, I’m not sure how accurate that link you attached is with regard to the current law but your 2 bullet summary above seems to leave out some other options.

I currently live in Denver where the market is HOT, but am actively seeking deals (residential, single and multi-family) to help build equity and a safety net just in case the market bears towards a correction in the next few years.

Marietta has changed a lot just in the last 2 years. 

@Justin ThiesseHi JustinI would look up @scott meyers education.

Im just in the process of comparing the advantages and disadvantages of an FHA vs 30yr fixed mortgage.

I guess I will just look around for rates just in case it doesn't lower it enough to make sense (not sure what that number will be).
