I'm just making about $250 net each month off of $1900/month rent (about $1,450 total for mortgage, insurance, taxes, etc.) , but appreciation has helped, the tenant is great, I have a property manager.

Certain vehicles offer more protection than others when it comes to bankruptcy proceedings and ringfencing assets from creditors.A good CPA should be able to effectively advise on the tax and legal implications of each vehicle.

I am in Cape May, and we are allowed to do as we wish down here, although the season is a 7-day minimum.You actually stand to do well and have less expenses and wear and tear from multiple turnovers, but those 30-day tenants don't grow on trees, so you are going to want to market hard.Please tell me you aren't relying on AirBnB in NJ - Tenants pay 20-30% more here and you get none of that overage - booking direct saves them that service charge and taxes, so you could actually up your rent and collect more yourself and they'd save $$.

Taxes are also paid up, however the place is vacant now and the grass is 2 feet high.

Monthly payment (including insurance and taxes) is $2,600.

For example, certain liens will not go away such as property tax liens, code enforcement liens, certain city liens, etc.  

your business will have it's own tax return depending on how you structure it and you'll get a partner return either profit or loss and that will pass through to you typically if you are an LP. if you are GP it's a little different. you also get the depreciation of the asset as a tax write off as well as interest expense typically.
