I know if we were taking out a loan this would not be possible as down payments for investment properties cannot be gifted, I'm not sure what the rules for all-cash purchases are.Since I manage our other investment properties in the area (all under my name), I don't want to put this new property in her name as it will create additional hassle of signing a new contract with our PM, creating new accounts with the utility companies, etc.Thanks in advance for the help!

To fill the gaps between new builds for our own account we are looking to do work for others.We are not well suited to the large volume / low return type of work (flip contractor, small remodels, etc.) but have the ideal setup and experience for new home construction, custom homes, small commercial and multi-family, and major remodels. 

My number one goal for 2018 was creating a financial plan for my fiancee and I to support our early retirement goals, and that led me to real estate. 

High Tech companies are moving into the area which creates jobs.

What I wrote above does not create an attorney/client relationship between us.

-Currently focused on  acquiring property and building equity in homes (next 1-5 years) with larger cashflow as a long-term goal (years 5-10).Thanks again to everyone for creating a great community-Kent

@Ray HaywardI would start by defining a scope and creating an actual budget for the work to be performed.   

You can rezone it to an existing zoning district in the Town, or you can create a completely new district that works best for your project, or you can do a text amendment to an existing zoning district.
