While this guidance provides general steps, it’s not legal advice; an attorney will ensure the process aligns with your specific circumstances.This post does not create a CPA-Client relationship.

[I think someone else provided an example of this case earlier]-Now provided you do qualify for purchasing a house (4 units or less), you will have no problem qualifying for a mortgage with a Schedule 1 bank as long as you provide the down payment (35% minimum of purchase price) and confirm proof of fund and the source of it- On the proof and source of funds, the banks would want to see an income enough to cover the mortgage payment and other expenses. and in some cases, they would want to make sure they know how you're going to cover your expenses (housing, heating, etc..) where you live.This is usually where it gets annoying for some folks but if you can satisfy this, you should be able to qualify for a mortgage just likely any Canadian tax resident, albeit you will pay a little more in terms of interest rate, etc.

All that to say, I'm not sure when they will want to cash in and sell the lot due to the appreciation the subdivision has provided.

It looks like you are doing an affordable build based on the cost but hard to say since you didnt provide info on the build itself such as square footage and finishes.

I will provide more information later.The two main setups are:1- Holding company in Wyoming if I want Charging Order Protections advantages, then a Series LLC in Kansas holding my Kansas RE and another Series LLC in Missouri holding my RE in Missouri.2- Holding company in Wyoming if I want Charging Order Protections advantages, then form as many LLCs as I want inside of it, one per rental or one LLC per 2 o 3 rentals.Fees are pretty reasonable and the same as they disclosed before the appointment, on their website or youtube videos.

These marketers would have the novice investor believe that the narrow focused “education” they provide combined with the “holy grail” formula (wholesaling, subject to, flipping, lease option, discounted note purchase, etc.) is most, if not all, anyone needs to become “independent” and successful, usually by month 12.

Please send me a message and I'll provide a few options. 

In your case, transferring the property from a revocable trust to an LLC where you and your wife are the owners should not affect the 1031 exchange, provided the LLC is a disregarded entity for tax purposes . 

Implying bait and switch is pretty bold, please provide specific examples OR possibly consider not implying this about a loan shop that you clearly don't know much about.
