@Sam Rogers A Deferred Sales Trust (DST) allows you to defer capital gains taxes by transferring sale proceeds to a trust in exchange for installment payments, offering tax deferral and reinvestment flexibility beyond 1031 exchanges.

Understand Proposition 13 for property tax benefits, local transfer taxes, and strict tenant and rent control laws.

@Fumi Maher, I'm not from Austin but I will give you the advice I give those here in Utah (most of which should transfer just fine) Renting by the bedroom seems to bring in the best cashflow.

Therefore expect a 15 page home inspection report   filled with corrective measures you must satisfy otherwise the buyer walks.All in between turning over the home, ordinary transactional costs ( broker fees, transfer tax, loan payoff fees etc.) seller assist, repair addendum repairs its very possible for your exit fees to approach 13-15% of the properties sale price. 

If your income is transferable, you could get back on your feet much more quickly by moving to cheaper, less competitive market out of state.

It is also simple to use a beneficiary deed (transfer-on-death) for real property.However, if there is no named executor of my estate (no will/no trust), how would the DAF be notified of my passing and the existence of the beneficiary deeds? 

When transferring funds from Hungary to the U.S.

something that seems to surprise new investors is that transacting real estate is expensive.in Pittsburgh transfer taxes are 5%, usually split between buyer and seller. 

@John Kelly You’re right that transferring your homesteaded property to an LLC can often disqualify you from the homestead and veteran tax exemptions because these typically apply only to individuals, not LLCs.

Ideally there'd be second factor requirements on any transfer, and especially "suspicious" ones (as defined by an entire team of people who monitor that sort of thing).Cookie theft and other takeover scenarios are a thing.
