I would love to connect and explore loan options including JV or creative funding.Thanks.

There are a few problems with what you said and how you are planning to go about filing taxes for your rental income.First, I think you meant your LLC is operating in a State that is NOT a “community property” State  As a result, you will need to file a LLC tax return with the IRS and State -> Yes, you are required to file The LLC tax return you file (I’d recommend getting help) will include an IRS Schedule K-1 for the LLC parters (you and your spouse).You will need to use these IRS Schedule K-1s to report your rental income and expense on your personal taxes return. 

All element's are present for this "chaos cake" to come out the oven. 

Purchase price: $98,000 Cash invested: $33,000 Bought a 4 acre agriculturally-exempted piece of land with a syndicate including my mom and my sister back in 2020 and has since almost tripled in price by 2023.

Your experience as a data analyst, real estate agent, and present property owner puts you in a strong position for success.Good luck!

I want to be sure the options I present are protecting them and myself.My understanding is that most VA loans do not carry a “due on sale” clause, so the options I am considering to start were to do a mortgage transfer, or have the owner seller finance.I am curious, if we go the seller finance route, what are the possible implications or options for the owner’s preexisting loan?

That is also why when I analyze every deal, I include those costs in the deal to make sure the numbers work .

Some other pros would be weather, globally sought after, growing infrastructure across the state to accomodate high speed rail, space industry, we have several major airports, growing tech/medical industries as well as the ever growing theme park monsters that help to bring in about 70 million people a year here, we stay pretty purple with politics and very alternative lifestyle friendly, schools overall aren't great, but we do have some very good ones including prep schools/acadamy's. landlord friendly and so much more too!

Typically when there are not separate meters for a multi-unit property, that utility is "included" in the rent.

Consider the benefits and drawbacks in light of your present circumstances and goals for the future.
