I always loved his response when people asked "should I give gifts to tenants" and he is like "no tenants are subservient scum and you are their master, never give them anything, they are losers who only take from you".

There are estate/gift tax ramifications as well as potential elections that need to be considered if the company is a partnership. 

Although I am sure they are happy for the extra business, I'd like to get my real estate broker, property manager and contractor a holiday gift as a token of my appreciation for the work we have done together this year.

My father-in-law had abt 5k saved up but it was just stuffed in a mattress (not literally) and I guess bc he didn't have an account that showed history banks wouldn't loan to him, so he gave my wife the money so she could "gift" it back to him and there be a record of it.

Can I transfer the vehicle title to the business and then have the business gift the vehicle in my personal name at my NY residence?

If he wants to help them out then it is easily enough done by gifting them up to the annual limits allowable tax free.When the property is treated like an investment property would be there is no problem or restrictions.

She addresses and stuffs the envelopes for gift cards for tenants during the holidays.

@Nicole Heasley - And makr it the gift that keeps on giving :-)

It is one of the more complicated and intricate ways to make money in real estate.
