I only made 2k bucks but all I did is forward an email.

@Buck SugdenWelcome to BiggerPockets!

Thanks for the help Buck 

Normally the above would steer most people clear of real estate investing and develop the perspective that ALL investors are just cheap-bastards looking to make a buck, but I more-so developed the mindset that "hey, if I can take down a slumlord like this and teach him a lesson maybe I can prove that there is a proper and dignified way to invest".

Would be interested to learn what are the best bang for the buck for renovations or flips.Cheers!

However, I have a mature portfolio which is now completely mortgage free.  

I  owner-financed the house to the buyer (who now lives there and, from what I understand, is clearly the legal owner in light of our land sales contract), but my name is still on many of the public records as I have the deed (our contract allows me to hold on to it until buyer makes final loan payment) and still pay my old mortgage on the home (I make a few hundred bucks per month cash flow).

I still have my old mortgage on the home as is often the case with seller-financing situations (we make a few hundred bucks in cash flow per month, which is one of the perks of seller-financing).

(assuming I Schedule E this property for the 3-4 months it's a rental)3) is this all too much headache and is the $800 bucks a month income not worth the blip/headache to my Schedule E portfolio even though taxes, interest etc could be a write off for those months?

However, save yourself 40 bucks and just buy the kindle versions on amazon.
