Any advise or connections to Houston Authority?

Hi BP,I am officially closed on my first deal.

We don't have an official pantry, just cabinets, no big deal.

**Tax Lot Consolidation:**To consolidate multiple tax lots into a single tax lot, you'll need to work with local authorities and possibly a title company.

What about this:Get added to the Morgage as someone that is authorized to discuss the mortgage, but not be responsible for it.Get added to the insurance policy as a "loss payee"Get a Deed (Quit Claim or other) from seller but don't record it until the loan is paid off.Keep making payments on the loan under the other person's name.Another idea is to do the same as above but record an option against the property to be able to purchase property at any time in the future for $100. 

I know you guys might not be authorized to give out legal advice but I figure it would be best to get opinions from those really doing it.

Maybe do it officially for good measure.

Taxing authorities and the booking platforms are now getting half or more of the pie. 

This post is my official pivot on Ogden. 

The Tax Court noted it could not find any authority that suggests a taxpayer is qualified to allocate the value of property between land and improvements.When land and buildings are purchased for one price, taxpayers should be aware of the pros and cons of using various approaches to allocating the cost for tax depreciation purposes.
