Is It Possible to Buy a short sale from a family member with a different last name then mines & purchase it in a Delaware LLC ?

Context: I purchased a 2 family unit several years ago.

I recently acquired a class B single family property it came with tenants.

I’m interested in the Hartford market particularly in buying multi families and renting out to section 8 tenants. 

Investment Info:Small multi-family (2-4 units) buy & hold investment.

Investment Info:Single-family residence buy & hold investment.

Investment Info:Single-family residence buy & hold investment.

I’ve been told that “house hacking” or buying a single-family residence (SFR) with a downpayment assistance program and renting out the rooms is a good place to start.

Asking here will only get people to recommend their areas for the most part, but you should do this to determine the best area to invest out-of-state1. make a list of every place you and your wife have ever lived2. make a second list of where you closest friends and family (the ones you like) live3. use those lists to ask questions and review good investment market listsWhen you see something from 3 that is on 1 or 2, that is a good place to start if it fits your budget.

Personally, I do not want to leave a future taxable gain to my family.
