4)  Do you have 2 years or more of tax returns that show rental income on a schedule E?

@Lynnette E. ah BLINK!

—Subsection (a) of section 408, as21 amended by the preceding provisions of this Act, is amend22 ed by adding at the end the following new paragraph:23 ‘‘(8) No part of the trust funds will be invested24 in a corporation, partnership or other unincor25 porated enterprise, or trust or estate if—Pg. 6941 ‘‘(A) in the case of an entity with respect2 to which interests described in clause (i), (ii), or3 (iii) are not readily tradable on an securities4 market, 10 percent or more of—5 ‘‘(i) the combined voting power of all6 classes of stock entitled to vote or the total7 value of shares of all classes of stock of8 such corporation,9 ‘‘(ii) the capital interest or profits in10 terest of such partnership or enterprise, or11 ‘‘(iii) the beneficial interest of such12 trust or estate,13 is owned (directly or indirectly) or held by the14 individual on whose behalf the trust is main15 tained, or16 ‘‘(B) the individual on whose behalf the17 trust is maintained is an officer or director (or18 an individual having powers or responsibilities19 similar to officers or directors) of such corpora20 tion, partnership, or other unincorporated en21 terprise.22 For purposes of subparagraph (A), the constructive23 ownership rules of paragraphs (4) and (5) of section24 4975(e) shall apply, and any asset or interest heldPage 6951 by the trust shall be treated as held by the indi2 vidual described in such subparagraph.’’.

Negative income (ie loss) means no taxes on your schedule e for that property.

This can only be a bad thing because it tends to hinder the creative investing juice from flowing. 

My understanding that it is okay to file on our own Schedule E

Unless it's a link to an official BP article/video that you did it's promoting your own brand.

....The worst part at least now is that I'm in the middle of an eviction and repairs due to vandalism in one of my properties...now i have to deal with that with a brand new pm who can hopefully help me stabilize these properties or help me sell them. 

How should i build my buyers list being that I’m brand new?

You e found a great community full of sage advice.
