I dont suspect any intentional foul play here, apparently he is a doctor and most likely is in control of the corporation but I need to make sure they arent trying to execute a prohibited transaction.  

And many would say thankfully but let's stick to the facts.Tulum is an artificial creation decided and executed by the Mexican government, as part of its masterplan for the Riviera Maya.

Evidence may include:two months consecutive bank statements or electronic transfers of rental payments for existing lease agreements, orcopies of the security deposit and first month's rent check with proof of deposit for newly executed agreements.See Treatment of the Income (or Loss) below for further instructions.

The best thing you can do for yourself is to educate yourself as much as possible, come up with a plan, and execute it.

50%+ expense load comes when you have full-time staff on payroll, admin/MISC, eTC.

I would ensure that you will always be able to get in touch with one of the staff.

We are new to the idea of a rental and trying to gauge our ability to execute on it.  

You dont need housekeepers or a 24/7 front desk staff, just a leasing agent and good maintenance staff. 

Sourced & executed the deal What was the outcome?

Yes this is a critical reason why self managing out of state is very difficult to execute.
