Is it an option to transfer the title of our primary residence to my husbands name so they wont "count" that mortgage against me?

The tenants did not acknowledge any issues they are having and my take away is current owner is hands-on based on the condition of the property.

Except, in NOLA, there are only a handful of property insurance carriers. 

Particularly if the loan has changed hands several times and it's delinquent, they are traded at discounts so their cost base might be far less than total owing.  

Property shall be treated as substantially improved by the qualified opportunity fund only if, during any 30 month period beginning after the date of acquisition of such property, additions to the basis with respect to such property in the hands of the qualified opportunity fund exceed an amount equal to the adjusted basis of such property at the beginning of such 30-month period of times in the hands of the qualified opportunity fund. 

I finally put in the time and completed the task at hand. 

Theirs lots of estate planning ways to reduce the amount of estate tax or inheritance, which would go hand in hand with an good AP Plan.

There are still multi families you can get your hands on.

I want to pay as little down as possible because I want to start renovations and need my on hand cash.

To do this, I need to show my dad first hand that real estate can be extremely profitable if properly executed.With that being said, I'm writing this post to seek ideas for information I should include in the presentation, as well as any pros/cons/stories regarding the above options and real estate investing in general.
