Up until that point the property was solely in my name.If I decide to occupy the property after 2 years, and decide to sell the property after 5, do I owe the full deferred tax amount, or are the taxes "prorated" based on the ratio of time the property was investment/primary?

So you can understand why I was blown away to see prices half that or less with rents 1500-1800 in Duluth.

i like this coffee maker. people can do individual cups if they dont need a lot, or they can do a full pot. https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0896NP59N/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b...

As a starting point: -If they work full time and make $700k a year -Don't want to or can't spend time self managing a short-term rental -Don't have a spouse who wants to take the lead on managing the rentals They are likely not going to directly reduce their taxable income with real estate year-to-year. 

Some general pros v cons - I'm sure other people will provide other insights as wellPros: -Above market rents- Monthly rent payment on time that you don't have to worry about or chase anyone down for (if full pay)- No shortage of tenants depending on your standards - Tenants are incentivized to not trash/destroy the unit, otherwise they'll lose their voucher (Yearly inspections made by local S8 inspectors to keep everyone honest- Rental payouts are normally adjusted 1-2 times a year to keep up with market rentsCons:- May take a little while to get onboarded - dealing with local govt can always take longer than expected   - Generally won't have a super high credit score (to be expected given it's the govt paying for rent)- Each unit will need to be inspected and meet a certain living standard in order to be approved for fundingYou'll want to make sure you work with a property manager who has extensive experience in working with S8.

While blanket loans often cap at 4 units, there are some lenders who may be willing to consider both properties together if they understand the full picture of your deal.Regarding your idea of separating the single-family sale from the multi-unit purchase, it’s not unreasonable to ask for the purchase price adjustment, especially since the single-family home is already discounted in the package.

(For example, IF I was able to purchase the first home (multi-family) outright, paid-in-full, then use a HELOC to pay for the down payment and closing costs for the second home, would that be a smarter approach?)

So providing housing in these areas is full of challenges. 

I can either go back to work or find a way to keep working in real estate for myself, full time.
