@Anthony DupreCalifornia is generally more cumbersome than other states when it comes to taxes and filings.

A lot of subs want to get paid quicker and don't want to file and say you won't get caught for some things, but you will.

You'd analyze it as a "cash purchase" and add a special expense category for your principal & interest payment.  

@Matt J.As an out-of-state investor in San Diego, key tax and legal considerations include filing a California non-resident tax return for rental income or capital gains, managing double taxation with potential tax credits from your home state, and complying with withholding requirements on property sales.

It may be more beneficial to work with your local principal investors.

There is no syndication filings by the company - did you invest in a JV deal? 

NOTE:  there may be some tax on interest or principal on the payments--seek professional advice.Also, stress there will be no inspections or other contingencies--sell the 'peace of mind' side of the equation.You have known each other for 12 years and you established you are a great payer. 

We are closing on our first rental next week and have been looking for a CPA to help with the tax filing.  

If the payment(s) reported on the credit report is less than the threshold payment calculation above, in order to count the lower payment, the loan file must contain a statement from the student loan servicer that reflects the actual loan terms and payment information for each student loan(s).

All you get is what you can export/import via CSV file:(We use Propertyware, have experience with Buildium, and have played with Appfolio and RentManager.Buildium is for smaller companies.The other three are tied, the differences being how much automation & customization you want to do.If you don't see yourself growing beyond 150 units, go with Buildium.If you're not very techy and plan to grow over 150 units, we'd recommend Appfolio.If you're techy and plan to grow over 150 units, we'd recommend Propertyware or RentManager.Of course, schedule some demos, take GREAT notes and them make your decision.FYI - there are MANY new options on the market, RentRedi, TenantCloud, Apartments.com, Hemlane, Rentec.
