Rental income is always passive income and never subject to SE tax even if you materially participate.If you are completely shutting off your schedule C business, than you would not report anything in schedule C.

And Poom.All that is left to do is apply this credibility in a way that google can see and notice what you are doing, and you become a GOD in SEO.So now my little Yooman, I am immortal, looking down on alll the lil SEO companies that think they cracked the code, while they don't even have a clue how to begin spelling S E O.Here is the thing.. anyone that is a self proclaimed marketer will tell you they know SEO right?

Hello fellow BP member!
I am new to BP and in the market to putting my money to work by buying & holding rental properties. However I am having a hard time finding any good deals in today's market in South East M...

Was just going to post about the S E "corridor" as I call it, CG, AZ City, Eloy & Coolidge.

Welcome, @Nick Frostbutter, SE Connecticut is a beautiful place to live.

Ive stayed away from the NE to avoid the Snow & Cold weather (there are other factors as well), one less thing for me to manage..Everyone has difference comfort levels, I understand wanting to be 2 hour driving distance from your property but for me taking a 2 hour flight to SE is an expense Im willing to do to be in my desire market.

It starts to creep fast.Best thing to do is discuss options with a local GC that builds the type of product your looking to build as costs do vary by region so I am giving you what I am seeing here in the SE area of the country but I work with people all over the country and costs are fairly close for this type of construction.

Just be aware of the higher taxes on trusts (35% tax b4 $10,000 b4 distribution to beneficiaries), & with the exception of The Mass. business trust, trusts per se are not designed to be in a business or a trade, such as flipping properties or finding yourself inadvertently achieving 'dealer status'.

This is typically done with a partnership or a C corp; This is to avoid SE tax on the interest or to take income from a business without being subject to the dividend rules of an Corp.
