After 10 months I cannot claim to be much of an expert on syndication but here’s what I did.

Income would be from hunting dues and timber harvesting, expense would be conservation management, taxes, and the mortgage.

There are also additional costs of operating and maintaining an LLC, like separate bank accounts, annual report filings, tax filings, etc.2.

However , properties taxes are due like roughly 12k for the two lots. 

@Brett Riemensnider You can claim expenses related to your rental property, even with a homestead loan, by allocating costs based on the 75% rental usage.

This is obviously much better than $1,400 per month.On top of that, you will now get 2x the depreciation write-off so your taxes should go down.On top of that, you will now get 2x the appreciation when real estate price go up.On top of that, your tenants are helping you pay down the loan, initially at about $100/mo for both properties, which gradually gets better and better.On top of that, you now have more units so if one or two goes vacant, you have more renters covering the losses of the vacant units.If you want to keep these properties, I would do a cash-out refi and go buy more rental real estate.

We were initially looking out of state for a potential move and or investment property just because the property taxes without being able to homestead, plus high cost of insurance, and harsh weather on homes made me feel like it might not be worth it.

My monthly payments (mortgage, insurance, taxes) are roughly $3,600, leaving me netting about $4,600/month.I have four years left until military retirement, after which I’ll have a pension, some disability income, and rental income from this property.

@Brett RiemensniderYou don't need to provide anything to your tenants tax-wise.
