Brain, we can tell you don't have good support here. 1) Transferring/Contributing to the LLC is a non-taxable transition.

I also make enough to support a 3k+ mortgage a month if needed.Does anyone have any suggestions on how I could leverage better or should I start with (1) then move up from there?

Unfortunately, Appfolio's customer support and training has been less than Satisfactory.

The difference is we had boots on the ground support & paid them.

@Bishara MubarakYes a 203k should work as long as your credit and income support both mortgages. 

I would let them know by law you can't say no to an ESA however your policy would generally consider that a single person would need a single support animal.

I support the change.As a host and regular guest it is a constant source of frustration when me or my guests can't compare apples to apples on what a place costs. 

Can anyone advise the cost of removing such duct (about 2-3 meter long), together with the removal of the hooks to support the duct in the ceiling, as well as to close off the vent at the cut off place?

If you need immense training and want to focus on all sorts of deals, go with a big name like Douglas Elliman or Corcoran or Compass.If you need some training and support, but are comfortable running your own shop - try Keller WilliamsIf you want the largest cut with the least support, go with ExP - you have to think of this is starting your own business vs. getting a job though.I personally am licensed with ExP

So find a home online that is where you want it to be, and has enough rooms / land to support some income from roomates.
