Can we takes losses from syndications (as a LP) and deduct those losses from our W2 income, Based on the fact that my spouse qualifies as a real estate professional?

No "headaches" except for risk of near total loss of principle unless I put more money in...I'll take the risk of a project that I need to complete personally in exchange for a near-perfect risk/reward profile and complete understanding of the investment.

If you got the property using a second home loan, you want to be careful with the amount of days that you stay in the property.If you stay in the property for more than 14 days, it may potentially be hard to utilize the losses against other forms of income.

Depending on your definition of house hack, these excess losses may be able to be carried forward as passive losses on form 8582 (not enough information to determine this part, would need additional info).I will mention as well that if you choose to switch to another accountant who more specializes in real estate, being that it's April, any good CPA will automatically want you to file an extension.

In this case, should I just accept further losses or keep the house?

The loan is a not a loss so therefore no write off. 

After this adjustment, the expenses are still greater than the rental income (it's producing a loss).What I'm unclear on is if I can apply the loss as a Passive Activity Loss deduction against my W-2 income (I'm under the MAGI limit).

Just wondering what the implications are of changing a single member LLC to a multiple member LLC as far as current depreciation, basis, carry forward losses and any other issues. 

First year was fine on property taxes, and we were cash flowing great.  2nd year the property taxes went up and not enough escrow was taken out by the lender, so now they're trying to catch that up and predict the current year, so mortgage essentially went up $1000 monthly, thus killing my $500/m cashflow and making me a $500/m loss.  

This type of financing will typically look very different and more like a traditional commercial real estate loan.That means a DSCR calculated based on a full NOI and expense load (so inclusive of vacancy loss estimates, credit loss estimates, repairs and maintenance, utilities, management fees and more – in addition to the property taxes and insurance expense that are the only expenses factored in on traditional residential style DSCR loan financing).Additionally, the DSCR minimums are generally going to be higher (typically up to 1.25x), the loan to value ratios lower (higher down payments) and underwrite more sophisticated (which makes sense considering the size and scope of the property).Many multifamily investors for properties of this size (such as more than 11 units) can syndicate capital and have more sophisticated financial and entity structures – its definitely a different world once you get up here in unit count.In Conclusion – when you are looking to invest in multifamily real estate and finance your investment – make sure you have the unit count in mind before you start shopping – the unit range can have a huge effect on your options.
