More details to this question:
I'm married and received an inheritance during marriage that is my separate property. I want to use the money to buy an apartment complex. What is the best way to maintain the separate property character of this property, if possible?
The inheritance should be kept in a separate bank account and not-commingled with your community funds. Your wife should also sign a quitclaim deed simultaneously with your purchase of the property.
Thanks,Jon
