Does that action of ADDING a joint owner (original owner still on deed) trigger the 90 day FHA rule?  

Glad to hear you're about to pull the trigger on a property! 

All we have to do is pull the trigger.

I would suggest that you connect with an agent to help you find a good deal and even if you aren't quite ready to pull the trigger, can you help you keep an eye on that market so when the right deal comes along you can move quickly.

Hey everyone,After a long period dedicated to research (and possibly a case of analysis paralysis), I’ve built up enough confidence where I’m “comfortable” pulling the trigger on my first real estate investment deal.

How close are you to pulling the trigger on the build?

For instance, here in Chicago most people house hack either a triplex or a duplex with an illegal garden so they can use FHA loans without triggering self sufficiency.

Each firm will be different.Some will do hourly consulting for anyone and everyone.My firm doesn't provide consulting services unless we also handle the compliance side. 

You may wish to confirm that the new 401k provider will handle the ongoing compliance support such as any required 5500 filing (e.g. 5500-EZ for a one-participant plan with assets in excess of $250,000), any required tax reporting (e.g. 1099-r in the event of a distribution or in-plan Roth conversion), mandatory plan updates and amendments, etc.4.

You'll also need some kind of 24-hour coverage for emergency maintenance, legal and accounting support, and compliance (in most states, you have to be real estate broker - which makes you subject to State audits of your escrow accounts, etc -  to manage for other people).If you prefer to focus instead on building your real estate portfolio, or other things, then you'll eventually need to hire a third party property management company; You may be able to self manage 15 doors but what happens when you get to 50, 75, 100 doors?
