My name and my daughter’s name(s) are also in title and the loan.I have really good equity in both properties (six figure) with great interest rates.At some point my daughters and their husbands will move out to upgrade to something bigger.I want to turn these properties into investment properties after my daughters move out: thinking the best way is to convert in my name only.Also considering leveraging the equity in the properties to help buy new homes/townhomes for my daughters when they are ready as well.Wondering what the best strategies would be for me to expand property portfolio, minimize tax impact , create more passive income while continuing to help my family grow.I appreciate any advice!
