We have rental properties--paid off units in an LLC and some we owe on outside the LLC. I'm in a long term outlook kind of mood today. I am curious what mechanisms people have used to exit the rental property business here? Main paths I can think of:
1. Sell and take the tax hit. This is now more expensive than before because that year will probably kill any ACA subsidy as well as the tax hit.
2. Sell but owner finance. Spreads the income out. Might keep us in the ACA. Has added risk of default and getting a house back in poor shape needing an influx of cash.
3. Some sort of like-in-kind exchange that gets us out of active management. Partnership in an apartment complex or retail property for example. Has partner risks as well as a learning curve as we have done only single family properties so far.
4. ? Something I haven't thought of...
