However, it would have to be a really good deal right now to pull the trigger.

Craigslist has a lot of scams around that so it would not surprise me if they have rules that weed out those scam posts that you have unknowingly triggered.

@Jordan MurrellI’d start gathering up resources and pull the trigger 1-6months.

Hi,I recently transferred the title of a California property from a C-Corp of which I own 100% of the shares to my and my wife's individual names.I was advised that the transfer would not trigger a property tax reassessment based on the fact husband and wife are considered an economic unit and the transfer would not be considered a "change in ownership" since 100% of the property ownership would be transferred from me through the C-Corp to me and my wife.Next thing I know I received a notice of supplemental assessment dating from the title transfer date.Was I incorrectly advised or should I contact the Assessor's Office to plead my case?

I'm not opposed to setting up my books properly from now on, but am afraid it combined with the late filing will trigger an audit. 

your projects with investors will be other LLC/partnership with your holding LLC being one of the members, right?

I was looking to see if there are any possible grants to fund investment properties and came across hearing about the HOME Improvement Partnerships Program with HUD.

I'm keen to work with local real estate investors, particularly high-end developers interested in a partnership with someone who is interested in handling the interior design element of their projects. 

My understanding is that it is possible that if you get a loan under your name and then move the property to an llc it could trigger a due on sale clause.

You can either put your family members in the position of the private lender secured on the property with a mortgage and interest rate or put together an LLC to purchase the property and have the operating agreement spell out the terms for the partnership or JV.
