Make sure you and your other partner have a dissolution agreement in place in the event things go south you know what will happen. 

We provide a great product, but it can still take months event with everything right with the house and the neighborhood.  

Obviously this will vary depending upon the property, but are there some general guidelines for how to anticipate this expense in the event that I am unable to obtain the information directly from the seller?  

My plan is to finance my first few investment properties with capital provided by a HELOC out of my current residence, but how do I transfer those properties to an LLC (or individual LLC's) without the lender considering the transfer a Due-on-sale event?

And, as a hypothetical, in the event that I get another multi-unit building in the future that truly has a single address, other than apartment numbers, how would you answer the same questions for that situation?
