@Jeremy Sharp All the info is on Hamilton County Auditor website.

If I were you, I'd hire a CPA, CFE, auditor, etc. to review your internal controls and provide recommendations on how to improve those controls. 

I can't even imagine how they are going to staff the deluge of calls and inspections and auditors to delve into the landlords rental contracts, etc.  

Therefore, you could argue, and an auditor probably would, that it was a form of evasion rather than avoidance.

And along with receipts, most auditors like proof of payment such as a bank statement or cancelled check.

Some auditors may be worse than others.Depending upon your AGI, you may not have tax due anyway if you are in the 15% tax bracket.

I pull all my info from the county auditors website.

I am a recent graduate of Villanova University and currently work as an auditor.

The bank we work with (And I'm in the process of talking to others) Has made the decision to not lend to us till we file 2015 taxes in 2016.Their auditors or whomever at the bank have made the decision to use our Actual revenues for 2014 (Which were effectively from 8 units), and take projected 2015 expenses (based on 18 units) leaving us with a DSCR too low to satisfy any further loans.Kind of blows my mind that they expect the increased expenses from the properties but don't consider all the new revenue sources. 

Lastly, you can get the market rent by asking real estate agents who specialize in leasing in that area.Vacancy - use 10% as a starting point but in strong rental markets, assume 5%.RE Taxes - you can get this info through the county auditor or county treasurer's office/websites.Insurance - call an insurance broker.
