My point is this, I am actively involved/advising this investor, providing local vendors contacts (handyperson, surveyor, painters, etc) and I "don't wait for them to call me", I call them weekly. 

Seems to me cohesive set of laws and rules regarding this activity would benefit  both the public and those that want to engage in the activity.  

You need to actively talk to people about what you are doing, ask them for referrals to others that might be interested. 

This community and forum have been an absolute treasure trove of information and Id love to actively contribute along the way.cheers! 

Are you still active? 

For bookkeeping purposes, I recommend designating a separate bank account exclusive to the house hack activities to keep some sanity.

That way you know they are active in the BP community!

If you have a ton of activity, then host an open house, get people through and then let them apply.

Note that active income isn't the same thing as non-passive income, it's lower bar that just requires that it's a business activity that isn't just entirely passive. 

Most who get tripped up are those buying the smaller multi-families that don't possess the correct use permit/historical rental license activity.
