For future readers....I am abandoning this after today, but maintaining a de minimis pre-marital separate property would allow the income to be characterized as "separate" and later be converted to community. 

Genial, recien empapandome de lo que debo saber y me emociona ver tantas historias de exito por ahora procurando conseguir el capital para comenzar .

Hi @Jeffrey De Los Santos; this is a clever idea! 

It shouldn't be used as a de-facto guide to the costs since it is, after all, a book that is not updated daily or yearly with up-to-date costs, and definitely not for every geography.

In 15+ years, I personally never have purchased property without adding value...it de-risks the purchase significantly. 

@Galen Herbst de Cortina  i used podcast addict when i was on android and it worked well.  

Contact your state representative and ask to have seller financing de-coupled from the following bills: HR4173 and the ‘Restoring American Financial Stability Act of 2010′.

I was hoping the large lot, cul-de-sac and the AWESOME view from the back deck would make up for this fact but nope, it's still a bi-level.

I think we can de-motivate, and you may have done this.

I originally planned on using Delaware but I am also looking into Alaska, Nevada, and Wyoming.
