My last look at Consumer Reports had Bosch taking the top 3 out of 5 spots (if I remember correctly).

The tax law changed the deductibility of personal interest as reported on Schedule A, Itemized Deductions, hope this helps. 

This sounds like good news since you're in California as well.

I contacted the listing realtor (same as two years ago) and asked him if he had any news.

@Brandon WesleyYou didn't mention where the property is located.Question 1TIC - The rental property will be reported on your schedule E.

That would lessen the blow a bit.Seller financing may also interest you - you can hold a note upon the sale and spread out the CG tax hit by reporting the gain in installments when payments are received.

I'm tired of every time I take a mortgage out, my credit report gets pinged. 

That way you have the most recent, up to date information in their screening report.

It’s a big deal because instead of the closing disclosure I’m suppose to get 3 days before closing, I get news that’s I’m not allowed on the title.
