On multiple occasions he had us wasting our time looking up unnecessary tax forms online because he wasn’t well versed in tax code.

I was not taught anything about investing or tax strategy as a child/teen, only to save money and don't buy unnecessary things (which is an extremely slow way to build wealth). 

If Buyer obtains a loan for any part of the Purchase Price of the Property, Buyer acknowledgesthat any terms and conditions imposed by Buyer's lender(s) or by CFPB Requirements shall not affect or extendthe Buyer's obligation to close or otherwise affect any terms or conditions of this Contract."

@Kelvin HeSome things to consider:Transfer Taxes: Some jurisdictions impose transfer taxes when property ownership changes, even if it's to an LLC you own.Due-on-Sale Clause: Check your current mortgage agreement for a due-on-sale clause, which might require you to pay off the mortgage if the property is transferred to an LLC.

If the tenancy is a specified lease term under a written agreement, and the lease term has not yet expired, you cannot impose a rent increase during the term, unless the lease agreements provides that you may do so.
