I don't make phone calls to let people know that there's nothing to report. 

I bought 5 single family rental homes this year so I have a lot of negative cash flow to report on taxes.  

@Frank GrecoWhile Florida does not have a state income tax; New Jersey(which I assume is where you live) does have an income tax.As a NJ resident; you are required to report worldwide income which would include the income from rentals located in FL.Having an FL LLC or a NJ LLC that registers in Florida will not change the above scenario.The good thing is that rentals often report a tax loss as a result of depreciation; but this is something to consider when you run out of depreciation and mortgage interest which may put you in the taxable income territory.

Freddie Mac allows the lender to use the amount on the credit report provided that amount is greater than zero if it's zero then the lender must use .5% of the current balance.

If they chose to ignore the request can I either take them to small claims court or report it on their credit4.

further I get the title report back and sure enough its in foreclosure and the amount owed is 206k.. so what were these problem solvers doing they had no clue it was in foreclosure that she owed what it was worth as a tear down..

The easy answer is send the deal to a title company and get a title report. 

They also report it to the inspector in town which I found it to be very strange...
