@Angelo CortezYou can still deduct, however STRs are reported on Schedule E, not Schedule C.The IRS expects you to file 1099s even without SSNs - which I personally always found to be puzzling.

They e-mail me their background check from the hospital, or I have them complete one through tenantbackgroundcheck.com.

Hey Bigger Pockets community, I'm just starting out in Step 1 (get educated) on what I want to become a successful career in real estate investment.I also currently run an e-commerce business that is currently completely online, but would benefit from having a brick & mortar storefront, and I had an idea that maybe using the investment capital I'm looking to allocate into real estate into a commercial property my business can operate out of until I decide to sell the property in or rent it out to another business.I am obviously very naive when it comes to the complexity of any good real estate deal (especially commercial VS residential), but I'm hoping to spend as much time learning from everyone here who is on their journey as well.My main concern with the idea of buying commercial to operate my business out of it that I might struggle to rent it out afterwards and that there may likely be depreciation in the commercial real estate market over the next 5 years.I understand there is a lot of nuance depending on the local market but I'm guessing commercial is even less of a "safe" bet than finding a solid residential deal to leverage in some way.

You even have the ability to send your tenant's leases via e-signature and their monthly rent receipts electronically.In addition, you can house all of your management contact information within the program -- such as lawyers, contractors and handyman.
