My name and my daughter’s name(s) are also in title and the loan.I have really good equity in both properties (six figure) with great interest rates.At some point my daughters and their husbands will move out to upgrade to something bigger.I want to turn these properties into investment properties after my daughters move out:  thinking the best way is to convert in my name only.Also considering leveraging the equity in the properties to help buy new homes/townhomes for my daughters when they are ready as well.Wondering what the best strategies would be for me to expand property portfolio, minimize tax impact , create more passive income while continuing to help my family grow.I appreciate any advice! 

Best to stay away from silly names.

The deed stays in the sellers name until the full, agreed upon, about is paid correct?

Two of the properties is in my name and 3 is in my company name 

I hold the account in my name and grant them access – Would this create any liability for me?

If a conventional loan is only available in your personal names, transferring the lot from the LLC to yourselves before the exchange could trigger IRS scrutiny and potentially invalidate the 1031 exchange due to the same taxpayer rule.

I also heard a guy named “ Donnie” who has been recommended to me .. the only issue is he dosent pay his owners until the end of the month .Is this the norm for Columbus property managers , or am I missing something? 

Keep it short and sweet: thank you for your application, the unit has been leased to an earlier applicant. 

Every market is different when it comes to brokerage services and as I stated no one is forcing you.. commish is negotiable its up to you to find the sweet spot between service and fee paid..  

When you do need an LLC is with MF properties or when you have partners.FNMA, FHLMC, FHA & VA all have due-on-sale clauses that may be triggered by transferring via a Quit Claim Deed (QCD) a property from your name to an LLC.
