In the last year for Knox county specifically the median sale price is up 9.92% and the whole MLS is up 7.14% year over year.After beginning to recover in July and August, home sales throughout the East Tennessee region slowed up again in September which is somewhat expected as schools get back into swing.Mortgage rates remained below 7% for the entirety of September, for the fourth month in a row.

Anecdotally, from searching Wake County (WC) NC records, defaults remain at near all-time lows, and I see this market (foreclosure/pre-foreclosure) as an opportunity not worth pursuing.

However, you could convert the rental property into your primary residence, live there for at least two years, and qualify for the Section 121 exclusion to avoid up to $250K (single) or $500K (married) in capital gains, though depreciation recapture remains taxable.

Quote from @Griffin Malcolm: The typical experience that I have had flipping homes with solar and also helping buyers/sellers on sales with solar is that the seller ends up having a request from the buyer to pay the remaining balance off from the solar debt on the home without increasing the value.

I will still be managing the property, as well as be an inheritor, so ideally my name should remain on the title. 

As others have mentioned, you will be able to take bonus depreciation, for certain assets, which won't be pro-rated.When you get the cost segregation study, it will break down the home into several buckets39 year property, 15 year property, 7 year property, 5 year property and land.The remaining assets will be pro-rated when it is placed into service.For example, a building placed into service in January will have a higher depreciation expense than the same building placed into service in November.Best of luck.

Upon the trust’s termination, the remaining assets go to a designated charity.7. 

Keep in mind though that your return on equity on your 400k equity goes from 1.5% right now (assuming 500/mo positive cash flow) to getting a -3% on the remaining 200k in equity, so that is also a factor.

X-rays of mold in lungs sounds serious ( but I’m not a doctor).Get the remaining mold fixed, and get a new PM.
