Job transfer? 

@Larry Zucker The proposed law change here (I posted the full text above) would expand the definition of brokerage services to include wholesaling -- 2 or more transactions in 12 months and regardless of whether for another person and regardless if by assignment, entity transfer, option, double close, etc.

If I close on the property subto, can I continue her delinquent tax contract of 1k pr/mth or would the taxes now transfer to my name?

And, do you have accurate and up-to-date bookkeeping records in place so you have the appropriate data at your fingertips to be able to make strategic decisions for each property?

Local municipalities and states have GIS data online that reveals much of how a property will be developed, even streams can be estimated (nothing like a photo of running water tho).

If you are moving it from a personal name to an LLC there is an exemption form for taxes you also have to fill out and file along with transferring the deed.

It's very easy for those "prying eyes" to see your transfer from the original title to the LLC (in California?)

California has a $800 minimum franchise tax per LLC per year (and it could be higher depending on gross receipts).LLCs allow for orderly transfer of wealth upon death through an operating agreement.

Once you transfer the ownership to the LLC, you individually do not have an interest in the property.
