I really think he just wants to put a young investor like myself on a good track for success (like he tried to do with his son.)

A family member contacted me directly, so my agent hasn't been involved at all with this deal so far.In that case, the only reason that you would pay him the 3 percent is you wanted the assistance with the whole process from negotiation, home inspection, negotiating any repairs, mortgage and closing and title referrals.

It earned about $35K a year, which combined with is retirement and social security benefits, provided him with top shelf top shelf living facilities - assisted living and then memory care.  

Don’t really want to stop that, but just looking for someone to coach or assist me through my options here so I make an informed decision! 

I have so far tested out Harvest, Toggle and Clockify they all track time but they do not allow to attach any support to the task.  

It offers features like Automated rent collection (Tenants can set up auto-pay) and you can receive payments directly into your account without any manual tracking.

However, these are the ones most commonly used:Five-of-Ten-Year Test: You must have materially participated in the activity for any five of the past ten years.500-Hour Test: You must have materially participated in the activity or activities for 500 hours in the current tax year.Step 3: Calculation your participation hoursEnsure you are tracking your participation hours.
