BEFORE taxes and insurance, probably common utilities and maybe an employee or two?

I have a rental property in Houston that I'd like listed on HAR.

I am an full time employee and hold a real estate license on the side. 

From the single-member LLC, i pay myself 100k last year to max out on the solo 401k contribution, while still having a W-2 as an engineer as my main job.my main job pays me 170k/year (Google)my single-member LLC rental pays me 100k/year (as S-corp structure)my question is regards to the payroll tax, i know I already max-ed out on the payroll tax on the employee side, any additional payroll side as employee will be refunded in my tax return, how about the employer side.

Plus you won't be frustrated / discouraged waiting to find the perfect BRRRR I think you will like being an owner rather than an employee!

I look at tenants not as customers, but as employees, which means I am responsible for for their job training.

Since this would only ever be from the 'Employer' side for foreseeable future, would the contribution to the employee be limited to 25% (5k - expenses -50% self employment tax,) or ok to use net?

Another way to find a property management company that knows those zip codes is to search rentals in those zip codes on Zillow or HAR and see who has many listings and see how they are presenting the property to the public with their pics and description of the properties.

He sells them for tens of thousands a pop and generates revenue of over $1M a year and has no overhead except his electric bill in his basement for the lighting, a part time employee and of course the food.

My husband and I are both full time employees and we do not have time to maintain our properties ourselves or deal with bad tenants.
