thank you @dominic densow.it is a great resource and I will always remain active daily from now on.

Remain debt free5.

Example:HUD-1 Property Tax Credit: $3000Taxes during my ownership last 4.5 months: $2000Total Property Taxes Due: $5000 Since the city this unit is located in allows payments split into 4 periods throughout the year, can I pay the $2000 property tax expense in 2015, get the tax deduction, and then since the $3000 is a payable pay it spread out over the remaining payments to clear it out in 2016?  

Considering the circumstances, we allow the ex-girlfriend and children to remain as authorized occupants and guide the mom to social service resources.

But that story remains largely untold because it doesn't sell newspapers.

The property will remain in seller's name until you pay it off in Jan.Just curious how straddling the calendar year helps one's tax position as a purchaser?  

If the price of a property does not go and rent remains constant, why would I want to sell it? 

Then the remaining 75% of the gain ($175K) would be recognized at the time of the balloon payment. 

But allow for any remaining in the attic or other places in the dwelling to escape by using a one way type exit device.

On average, a house that is un-staged can remain on the market five times longer than a home that is well staged.
