Should we co-sign on the property at purchase for legal clarity of ownership, then how would I qualify for the balance on the refi (I'm self-employed with a lot of deductions)?

If you want to really nitpick, different cities have different percentages of taxes and transfer stamps to pay.

This might be Owners with Low Financial Stability Scores (FSS) or Seniors with Long-Time Ownership.

I would also take a non-refundable deposit that gets transferred into their security deposit once they move in on the off chance someone says yes and then backs out at the last minute.

@Bjorn Ahlblad I’m thinking of asking about seller financing for now in my own name and then later transferring ownership to my LLC.

We're working on two rather complex ones, one that includes 1031 transfers (though as noted above, we are not the QI).

How do you transfer ownership of a paid-off property from a person to a business, and is this smart to do?

So my grandfather's Self Directed IRA has a few mortgages on properties throughout the state of Florida and he suggested to me that I try to transfer or liquidate the notes sooner rather than later.

When offering up owner financing, does the title transfer to you and the previous owner is just like a bank with him/her  being first lienholder on the property until you've satisfied the debt?

This should be a tax-exempt quitclaim deed transfer in most states since the Grantor (me) is still 100% in control of the property and has the power to revoke the land trust.3.
