Beginning to wonder if we are smart to stick with our rent controlled apartment (3 bed $3750) and use our cash to buy rental properties in other areasFor SF: Our budget is limited to $1.25m with 20% down.

From the extremely limited knowledge you have provided I’m not sure what value you are providing here.Typically the next step is going to be form some sort of entity to split the ownership

The problem (according to my exchange company) is even though the homes have been treated as joint with my wife and myself, the IRS auditor could potentially push that the homes I owned prior to marriage had a "transfer of ownership" when placed into the trust.My CPA suggested this outline to limit my exposure to this event.....1.

Limiting your capital to purchase more deals. 

The reason I believe that wholesaling would be best for me is because i have a limited amount of upfront cash but I have a pretty good credit score.

County is usually closer to accurate, but really the only way to get the accurate size is to go measure it yourself.
