So it is fine for us to just list the property under my husbands name on the Schedule E even though we both own it, and I manage it?

You’ll want to invest in areas that have tenant interest but also aren't on the extreme end of neighborhood quality—this means avoiding the very toughest spots, where turnover can be high and managing tenants can be difficult.

I'm an investor, flipper, and property management company owner in central CT. 

Do you put managers/assistants/employees in as co-hosts? 

You could trim your expenses by eliminating property management - you can absolutely do this yourself on a 6-unit, even as a newbie.

The only other options I can see are A) your mom partnering with you rather then selling the property to you - you become 50% owner and bring the funds and management to the rental while she provides the existing equity as her contribution; or B) your mom lending you the rehab cash out of her personal funds while also seller financing the house to you. 

Tenant stopped paying rent before 2 months of the lease expiring, property manager filed for eviction process but tenant vacated the property before sheriff served the notice.

This is the foundation of why LaPlante Real Estate is based in portfolio management and property management... my personal portfolio started in 2009 and I find the majority tends to be Section 8. 

(And - full disclosure - I will be using a mail forwarding address also and only occasionally actually hosting meetings at that location... it's like a 'WeWork' space, I generally work from home and my managers are on-site at the parks...)To everyone's continued success, and due diligence,-jl-

Thank you all for your responses I am going to look into managing this one myself to understand more about what goes into managing .
