This provides me some legal protection as well as tax benefits.It depends on the person, most small time investors should just put in their personal name as long as they qualify for conventional financing. 

Or would it still be capital gains tax because it is proceeds from that property?

Cost segregation has been a very popular tax strategy for real estate owners as it can provide significant tax savings.

What is the tax basis for the lot and what income tax will you owe?

I have also sent personal hand written letters to people who are listed on the tax records of properties that are vacant.

Could get a policy with it as a second/vacation home, but expect I'd run into claims issues if BnB renters caused a problem.

Just looking to see if this is the expectation nowadays or am I way off on having RentRedi handle this for me. 37$ + tax ( approx 42$) and ask Tenant to  fill the application and pay directly instead of me being middle man.

The other part of the is the tax implication when computing ROI.
