I have a real estate attorney that I have worked with in the past and will work with him on this also.Does anyone have advice on next steps and/or examples of terms, operating agreements, types of LLCs ect. ?

Also, I'm not sure how you're paying attention to it on the tax side, but the unit that you are living in's profit at sale is calculated differently than the other unit that you're renting out.Once you move out, that unit is officially available for rent so from that point forward, any profit gained at future sale will be calculated starting from that point and will be taxable.
