For numerous reasons we decided to sell, and received at offer from the Church that was one of the occupants, for a price equal to appraised value.  

As for property taxes, look at the recently sold duplexes in your area and multiply that value by the tax rate in your county.

Now that I believe I have value to offer, I plan to become more active in the forums, aiming to assist those who helped me and support newcomers who are embarking on similar paths.Cheers BP!

Also, based on the new regulations (1 of the 2 units must be owner-occupied), how do you think this will impact the home's value?

Also try tweaking things like deductible and replacement value to try to get premium lower.

@Devin @Devin Basile there is a value to a binding contract so that would be self dealing if you transferred something from your own name, or an entity owned by you, to your IRA. the LLC that you want to use with your IRA should be formed after your account is set up with a proper custodian. 

Red Flags: Multifamily is valued based on NOI divided by Cap Rate.
