Since the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) doesn’t consider child support taxable income, I would not consider it in the rent calculation unless you have a HUD-specific home.According to hud.gov, “[rental property] owners must count alimony or child support amounts awarded by the court unless the applicant certifies that payments are not being made and that he or she has taken all reasonable legal actions to collect amounts due, including filing with the appropriate courts or agencies responsible for enforcing payment.”So, does child support count as income for renting?

@Logan Berry, a quit claim deed doesn't make something "worthless".A quit claim deed transfers any rights to a property that one person has to another person but makes NO guarantees about what rights that person had to begin with or even that they had rights.

My plan is to transfer my money from my personal account into my LLC savings to make my housing purchase.

Many mid term travelers are families relocating to the area, displaced families (homes have had water or fire damage, or are undergoing extensive renovations, eg), international business travelers, families from out of state visiting their family here for a few months...all types.

Going international is more challenging, and I'm sure the weather kept some people away.

My uninformed opinion was that 1031 allowed for the deferral and transfer to the new property.

I will post my story on here... it resulted in a more than 8000 loss... and water bills which were not paid, and which Northpoint was supposed to assist in transfering to tenant's name. 

Transferring a property with an existing mortgage to your LLC can sometimes trigger a “due-on-sale” clause, which could require you to pay off the loan immediately.If you’re thinking about expanding your rental portfolio, switching to an LLC could give you more flexibility and protection as you grow.

I've received numerous different feedback but would like a direct answer to make sure I understand how the process goes in transferring a RE license and Broker license to another state. 

I prefer tenants pay using electronic ACH transfers through apartments.com and in those cases payment is considered made when they initiate the transfer even though I don't receive the money for days afterwards.
