I've spent aproximatly 61.5K on expenses over the years, Interest, Property Tax, Isurance, HOA and various repairs and upgrades.

There may be something called a "Due On Sale" clause.Check and see if all tax parcels are included in one mortgage or if they have separate mortgages.You have to have him spell out what he considers to be a "partial seller financing".

@Tar-U-Way Bright Using your LLC for real estate ventures offers legal protection and tax benefits.

Britt,My firm has evaluated some smaller properties (under $500k) in the past for cost segregation, and it generally does not cost justify moving forward, since the benefits are small, and typically the tax liability on the income is minimal if any.

You are so right about analysis paralysis 😁Not too concerned about mechanics though I would like to learn more about how to best use CRMs (specifically freedomsoft), but also would like to learn specifics regarding forming LLC structures and tax strategies 🤔

u can see these homes on my website. also if there is any way to manage it.. if you can figure out how to get paid as a WA resident you will enjoy the same no income tax status you enjoy now.. 

If you decide to sell and find an investment property with a greater cash flow potential.A 1031 exchange would allow you to indefinitely all of the tax and use it to your advantage to reinvest into larger nicer property/properties.

Stay professional in all communication.

If the purchase is done in cash, as you mentioned, they’d have more flexibility, but they’ll still want to carefully consider the tax and legal implications of the subsequent sales.I hope this helps, and good luck with your client’s deal!

I agree with the others here that say you need to have some skin in the game, if you are going to live there yourself, get an FHA loan rather than owner financing, you can get a 3.5% down loan, personally I do not love these as they require  PMI which is an additional expense, and you also need  bring additional funds for closing at least for taxes, title, attorney and transfer fees . borrowing from anyone else for the down payment, to include a personal loan from the bank is not a good idea, those again will be higher int. rate.
