I know as a Federal banker where we are Veteran owned its a great time for our Military Veterans to buy.

@Kevin Akers I think you have this solved but many borrowers confuse Federally insured loans with conventional.

Hopefully you can qualify for the mortgage in your own name at that point and use the proceeds to buy out your partner and do a simultaneous deed conveyance of the property out of your joint names and into your name alone.Again, speak with your local legal counsel and CPA about how to structure this and plan for the taxable consequences. 

We use a checklist again, to follow all Landlord-Tenant Laws, federal housing, and more, so it's consistent and fair for each applicant.

And if you do that then he is in essence selling that to you and that would end up in a taxable event for him.

Keep in mind there's currently a nation eviction moratorium on properties financed with federally backed mortgages (eg FHA).

That's because in addition to the $x per hour they're paying their worker, they also have to pay federal, state, local, SSI and medicare payroll costs.

The CARES Act allows the Federal Retirement Thrift Investment Board (FRTIB) to create special withdrawal rules for Thrift Savings Plan (TSP) participants affected by COVID-19.

My wife and I plan on living in the guest house and renting the main house out. insurance is telling me I need to insure the houses separately if I plan on renting one out but I'm scared my lender (navy federal) won't give me the 0 down loan because I plan on renting the main property out.

Our goal is to reduce our overall taxable earnings, ideally far enough to still be eligible to contribute in full to our Roth IRA’s as well.
