The LLC is a pass-through or entity, so it is ultimately recognized as part of my single tax return.After all factual and legitimate accounting, the tax exposure can be significantly minimized with proper planning, documentation, and execution.Again, I’m not a tax professional and I don’t play one on TV.

It may seem that way from afar on TV but I saw a statistic that only 6% of the structures in Harris county flooded from Harvey. 

My tenant caused damage by leaving carpets with excessive cat urine and vomit all over, burnt holes in it with hot coals in a plastic bucket and pretty much never vacuumed stairs, cleaned shower etc etc.She wanted some TV wires back that she left so she was organizing a painter to come and fill the holes and repaint them.

When I drive up to a property I own and the front door window is bashed in and there's a series of junk cars in the driveway, I am going to have questions from the people actually LIVING there about what is going on, and with interests in keeping their neighborhood decent, versus a property manger who may send someone by for an inspection in six months or a year when they move out. 

But, I couldn't say with absolutely certainty that the cause was negligence, purposeful, some strange series of coincidences, or just multiple faucet and appliance failures that occurred within hours of each other.

My background is in customer service and TV/Film production -- a clear path to real estate, don't you think?!

A plan is a series of steps designed to achieve a specific goal, or set of goals. 

So maybe these might be alternatives.Provided that 12 months of rent are all paid no later than the 5th, you could:*Guarantee a lower rent increase on lease renewals (1%-2%)* Offer inexpensive but high perceived value items (i.e. big screen TV) for lease renewals * Provide a Winter Fuel Credit in December if tenants pay for heating fuel * Offer a choice of unit upgrades that you may have been planning to do anyway (repaint, new appliance, ceiling fans, etc.)Basically, find ways to incentivize and reward your tenants with something other than a rent discount.
