Deciding to change the locks and only give the executor the key is up to you and how comfortable you feel with them, unless of course there's a legal loophole in FL that requires this to be done that I'm not aware of.When it's all said and done, you can have them sign off on a Release to Right of Possession and I'll include a link to one example here too. 

You would have to qualify debt to income wise but if the purpose of the home fit the guide lines rulebook, HUD 4155.1  You could buy your next home using FHA.There are a lot of loopholes when buying and using FHA, VA-Military, USDA, DPA-Programs you just need a seasoned mortgage banker who can walk you through the process ahead of time. 

Congress wanted to close this loophole specifically, hence the non-qualified use proration.

Just realize that the IRS closed the sec121 excslusion loophole a few years back --- consult a qualified professional. 

Biden also seeks to close the death loophole by taxing capital gains on inherited assets.

So, wondering if this would provide a loop hole?

i just posted this question on a separate thread and wondering if you might have some insight..i have some money through my 457b contributions, a portion of which are in a roth ira. if the math checks out on a property (perhaps a multifam i can house hack), i think i can do better investing my roth ira into a buy/hold real estate. have you come across scenarios where investors found some loopholes with the least penalties or tax impact on such a strategy?

Since we are buying the house and the seller next week is paying related taxes is their a loop hole that can help us avoid paying a conveyance tax since the property will be flipped 3-4 weeks later?

hi everyone - i have some money through my 457b contributions, a portion of which are in a roth ira. if the math checks out on a property, i think i can do better investing my roth ira into real estate. it'd be great to hear from others who've found some loopholes with the least penalties or tax impact on such a strategy. my account does have a restriction wherein i'm unable to take out a loan against the plan for a property outside of california (my home state). my intent is to invest out of state. questions: has anyone ever rolled over their funds into an escrow, perhaps?

@Matt Parker you are in sticky territory here and if you do anything wrong, and the tenant pushes back, you'll lose in court.There are 4 loopholes to SB 608 on why you can terminate a tenant.
