It can be difficult to find small multifamily (2-4) here unfortunately, but as long as you find a place where you can meet the 1% rule when you move you’ll be good.

The property taxes seem high in relation to the cost of insurance IMO but I've never been to San Diego unfortunately, lol.

Unfortunately, the person I would have recommended, is no longer in the business.

Sorry for rambling...Ive looked around for similar circumstances but haven’t found anything.Thanks so much even if general advice (not to be construed as tax advice).Thanks,Jason

If you have the luxury of being able to work from anywhere (I work downtown, unfortunately) you should check into the surrounding suburbs of Dallas, I've heard it's easier to find workable deals there.

In order to get around that, you need to prove some change in circumstances such as in this case that you need to move closer to your job. 

@Daniel HaberkostUnable to train anymore and unable to surf traditionally now, unfortunately..House hacking is something I’ve considered but being tied to Denver for over a year with the FHA occupancy requirements is not something that appeals to me knowing I’d like to move back to San Diego.

It is an unfortunate catch 22.

I'm not saying every surveyor does their job perfectly & I'm not saying there isn't an extenuating circumstance with the handwriting, but I'd definitely look into it.

Generally putting rental real estate inside of any corporate tax entity (C or S) is not a good idea.If you're going to wholly own the RRE assets, owning directly or via a disregarded entity (SMLLC) is generally the way to go for income tax purposes.If you expect to have ~$100k of excess cash flow each year to invest, it might make a lot of sense to spend a little time with an attorney and tax CPA who can advise you based on your individual facts, circumstances, and goals.
