Is this a single-family home or a multi-unit? 

If the property were owner-occupied, would I only receive credit for one rental unit's income, while the non-conforming basement income wouldn't count?

If the tenant stays, they will be on a month-to-month lease, which requires a 30-day notice.

I think tax benefits should be secondary to buying something that would work well as a STR.I would recommend you consult a tax professional to see what possible tax benefits you could receive from buying this STR.

Your tenant is a a-whole, which is something entirely different.2.

If you do place the property in her name, then inherit it later, it does allow for you to receive a step up in basis at that point, allowing you to sell the house shortly after her death without paying capital gains tax.5. 

The truth is if your investors have no involvement in the operations, If they just put in money and expect to get a profit, you have created a de facto syndication.2) I see a ton of people who just raise money for the syndication. 

I currently use Wells Fargo and it’s a pain in the butt to keep going there in person and setting up a security deposit account.

Definitely get a specialist out to inspect.
