Will the title company put this property under our LLC name, and won’t be required to legally inform HUD/tax authorities. - will it influence property taxes once we move to conventional loan in 3 yrs? 

I know some investors use them as a tax-advantaged way to grow their portfolios, and I’d be curious to hear your thoughts on that.Looking forward to your insights!

When I did my first house hack in Columbus I showed very low income on taxes. 

We also got them to have it professionally cleaned, ducts cleaned, they threw in some furniture for free, paid a lot of the closing costs that buyer usually pays, paid most recent mill levy instead of prior years taxes, paid my 2.8% commission, etc. because it is a buyers market and that's what you can negotiate in a buyer's market.

Also, I'm not sure how you're paying attention to it on the tax side, but the unit that you are living in's profit at sale is calculated differently than the other unit that you're renting out.Once you move out, that unit is officially available for rent so from that point forward, any profit gained at future sale will be calculated starting from that point and will be taxable.

I'm not sure how attractive the numbers will be however when looking at HOA dues, insurance, taxes & the unpredictability of future costs with HOA dues.
