If we kept it in our name for a year, does anyone know if we will have to pay transfer taxes when we transfer it to the LLC in both our names?

The ones that sell the fastest are the ones you want to pay attention to.

I mention this for visibility into the amount borrowed vs the individual's personal assets.Current language in contract: The Guarantors, known as John Smith, of Street Address, Coral Springs, FL 33071 agree to be liable and pay the Borrowed Amount, including principal and interest, in the event of the Debtor’s default.

With a PM in place you will have to pay them their cut and to go back to the second part if you end up buying in a lower class area you will be getting a lot of turn around it’s just the way it is.

As I don't have large down payment, I am thinking to start building a portfolio with finding off market deals that have equity and do bit rehab/renovate and later get refinanace to pay off HML with a traditional lender/DSCR loan. please share any thoughts on my plan and any lending resources.

I want to show you how I was able to put 0% down on a house hack/live-in flip in the Boston metro area…not to toot my own horn, but because I believe that ANYONE can create a good deal when buying a house hack.Deal Backstory: Driving for Dollars, “Farming” and ReferralsFor the past few months, my wife and I have been putting in offers around the Boston metro area only to lose bidding wars with people paying $50k to $100k over asking.

As the seller I would pay for the energy audit, do the analysis on the work to be done (cost vs savings) and then market the home with a prepackaged improvement contract that would meet lender guidelines (solar, EE windows, etc). 45 day close to allow for enough time to do loan and obtain permits, occupancy COE+2. 

There are also online portals from many property management softwares that allow people to pay online. 

I think you have to pay 100$ for reports for other municipalities. 

The caveat with FL is that the tax laws will consider you a STR for paying transient occupancy tax if the occupancy (I believe ) is less than 6 months.
