@Jack B.Check on the NIIT 3.8% if you are REPS that could be excluded but this may add other layers of complexity for other concerns with your tax planning you have a lot of fun stuff to work with.   

Just so ya know....Even the high traffic Lifeproof LVP with thr 22m ware layer that is pet proof and waterproof?

What should I expect to pay to have a new layer applied.

I hope your situation never comes a hard time--bad tenant, improper fixes, legal issues-- because those are the times when you'll wish you would've had that layer of protection. 

Yes, it differs, but they don't always follow the IRS treatment that adds another layer of complexity, if not the main driver. 

Metal roofs are very light compared to shingles so if there's only one layer, weight isn't an issue.

From my experience,  assignment contracts are generally poorly drafted and the underlying sales agreements are customarily drafted even worse which adds an additional layer of complexity to sift through.

I've found many deals by peeling a few layers back to discover the market rent is higher and/or the purchase includes other tangible things outside of just rental cashflow (i.e. instant equity).

My main reasoning for the quit claim deed is to have an extra layer of liability protection for assets. 

Then you can layer in the terms of your seller financed note to figure out what their cashflow is and what their return on cost would be.Happy to work through some numbers with you, just let me know.
