I would talk to a qualified intermediary and a tax professional.

(WI taxes on my corporate income, concerns from my employers perspective, etc.)Scenario 1: Request my employer mark my work location as 'Remote'. 

Those that respond “$0” or something ridiculous, you can request income documentation from them to justify.Don’t be afraid to share with them how much your property taxes & Insurance increased and that YOU cannot afford to absorb them.ALWAYS get an increase or something of value annually or tenants will start thinking they should never have an increase, making future increases that much more difficult to negotiate.

Tax Benefits.

We are in the 2/5 years so we could sell and profit 200K+ tax free or we could rent with cash flow (not including mx) 1K/Month.

Don't forget to add an adviser to your team to work with your CPA/tax professional to maximize the tax benefits available on each and every project.

CA for instance has hundreds of thousands of paper lots that were created between about 1900 and 1935. these paper lots get sold at tax sale all the time and its where a lot of the land geek type of players toil. 

Hi,i have a duplex property in south LA.purchased it for 275k now worth about 750k and I owe 525k in loan due to cashout refi that I used it for a downpayment for my other investment property.Due to this cashout I'm negative cashflow.

Due to taxes, the up and down nature of stocks and also out of a desire to actually own something real and tangible, I decided to invest in real estate.

IRS guidelines would require you to seek out a tax professional but i believe you are taxed on gifts above $14k.
