As you and @Carl Fischer both mentioned - converting passive rental income into ordinary income subject to SE tax by way of paying your PM company a management fee could be costly if the proper steps aren't taken or if your tax situation doesn't allow for any benefit of your proposed structure.You also want to be sure an S Corp election is right for you.

I've seen conflicting reports that says if you use any portion of the advance for COVID related expenditures it converts the entire amount into a grant, not needing to pay back anything.
