Wages are still stagnate but that normally goes up with full employment.

I know here in CO, you have to have your Employing Brokage name and your name on all advertising.

It is ordinary income also subject to self employment tax

@Scott Trench go at night and get your employer@Joshua Dorkin to sponsor you!!!  

If there is a college nearby or an employer that employs a lot of young professionals I would be more comfortable.However if the area "grows up" 1 BR might be a requirement for most renters and 2 BRs more desirable.You also are in the "no-man's" land of too big for residential loans - but too small for on-site management. 

Don't take yourself too seriously, especially if you're self-employed.

Assuming Smartmove recommends the applicant, we get tenant references from prior landlords, assuming they have rented previously and lastly income and/or employment verification.The applicant pays for the Smartmove screening which is $35 currently.  

From what I have researched thus far, the solo 401k or self directed IRA have a qualifier of being self employed, correct?  

Such as Raytown, Independence, Lee's Summit, Blue Springs...etc  SKC/Grandview/Belton is making a great come back due to large corps bringing in a vast amount of employment & probably several transfers!

@Bobby HughesIf you are self-employed at least on a part-time basis you can explore opening a self-directed solo 401k, transfer some or all of your former employer 401k plan and then invest the funds in physical real estate.
