Intern with a wholesaler.

Welcome to BP,My advice would be to intern or shadow someone already doing the work you're mentioning.

@Ronnie GalindoIf you can wait another year, look into Internal Revenue Code Section 121 - exclude the gain from sale of your principal residence under certain circumstances. 

I highly recommend you consult with a knowledgeable CPA in the area of international/cross-border taxation especially as it pertains to estate taxes.You are correct - a nonresident alien is generally subject to an estate tax on their U.S. situs assets of 40% on the excess of $60,000.

I want things to be transparent and I'm nervous about international rules and regulations etc.

@Jessica RolandIt's nice when they do internal appraisals. 

I get $450-$500 for recently renovated, 1 bedroom units in the International District and those are only getting $537-$556 for 2 bedrooms.

You will find the instructions on the department of treasury internal revenue service publication 487 (Rev. 1-2006) Catalog number 46553K www.irs.govLet us know how it goes. 

It is an international property which I have seismic report on and is privately owned.Over 1 billion barrels of oil reported on the property. 

Now the tenants will have an internal psychological battle with themselves thinking that their demands may be unfair. :)Either way, it's a great book and I recommend it to everyone!
