My wife and I file separate because if we filed jointly we would have to pay 10% of our combined taxable income.

All of the NoCo franchises are jointly owned.

Any recommendations for underwriting templates you are currently using for syndications or joint ventures? 

Also, each tenant is jointly and severally liable for the contract.

Having to buy another primary residence, to avoid tax on the gain of your current home, has not been a requirement for over 20 years.Assuming it was your primary residence from the beginning, and you have not moved out/rented it for more than 3 years, you gain is exempt up to $250k filing single and $500k married/filing jointly.

Some executors make all decisions jointly with the heirs; others do not.

Joints can loosen over time and create an arcing problem.Running wire isn't all that difficult if 1. you have an open attic that the wire runs through or 2. you plan on removing lath and plaster anyway to go with sheet rock.

Likewise, the "Refinance" part of the equation doesn't assume you'll refinance 3 months or 6 months after you've finished fixing up the joint.

I would be happy to talk about sub2, joint venture partnering, lease options, buying on wraps AITDs, getting private money and negotiating terms deals with sellers.Thx for offering!

This is advice for the readers: DO NOT buy real estate jointly with your IRA.
