It only defines the size of your fair share.

Afaik, the code requires only if you have 4 units that are sharing walls.

There are added headaches because the property is shared to consider as well. 

If the accounts are shared, either one of you or both can contribute to the down payment.

Any guidance or experiences you can share would be greatly appreciated.

Share the love and I'll update the list.Property Search:Realtor: https://www.realtor.ca/REW: https://www.rew.ca/Zoocasa: https://www.zoocasa.com/Zolo: https://www.zolo.ca/Rent Info:Rentometer: https://www.rentometer.com/Rentals: https://rentals.ca/Craigslist: https://toronto.craigslist.ca/search/apa - change to your city (Very good interface, surprised for Craigslist)Padmapper: https://www.padmapper.com/Lending/Mortgage Rates:Ratehub: https://www.ratehub.ca/mortgagesRatespy: https://www.ratespy.com/Stats / Data:Stats Canada: https://www12.statcan.gc.ca/census-recensement/index-eng.cfmCensus Mapper: https://censusmapper.ca/ - Powerful if you know what you're looking forCity Data: http://www.city-data.com/canada/House Price Index: https://housepriceindex.ca/#maps=c11RBC: http://www.rbc.com/economics/economic-reports/canadian-housing-forecast.htmlDeal Analysis:Dealcheck:  https://app.dealcheck.io - They have a great App for mobiles tooThis list is nowhere near exhaustive.

@Nick KnoblachOf course, you should always confirm with your own CPA who is familiar with your situation, but here's a few generalities:- CA taxes residents on worldwide income, so the CA resident will likely be taxed on the entirety of income that he/she receives on his/her CA resident tax return, including his/her share of rental income- CA will likely want to collect tax on all income earned in CA due to CA-sitused real property, so any non-residents in CA should likely be prepared to file a non-resident income tax return in CA to report his/her share of income earned from the CA real property-I'm not familiar with MN rules, but most states generally allow for a credit for taxes paid to another state. 

I just signed up with the cheapest Flat Fee MLS site that was essentially just a "referrer" to ListWithFreedom.com ... but the referrer's site actually saved me around $50 over going directly with the main host site. 

Great that you joined the site!

Andrew thanks for typing your how-to series up and sharing.
