This isn't going to be long because carpel tunnel is kicking my @$$ right now.  

Smokers do not belong to a protected class so you are welcome to deny them.

Assuming this is just a plain vanilla rental, it should not be subject to self-employment tax, and it belongs on Schedule E, not Schedule C, where it sounds like your tax software is currently putting it. 

It sounds like your account is being sold to Renters Warehouse so technically your account will belong to them once the transition occurs so the terms of your agreement will be key in how you terminate.

All that said, it wont be long before it is solid development between Milwaukee and Chicago.PS - Someone posted people in Milwaukee start wearing shorts when it hits about 30 degrees, which isn't too far from the truth.

If you let anyone park where they want, you won't know if the cars belong to your tenants or your neighbors tenants. 

Based on “substance over form” principles, it ruled that the IRA did not really own Roth Inc for two main reasons:• The IRA’ were exposed to no significant risk; and• An independent person in the IRA’s shoes could not realistically have expected a benefit.Since the IRA did not really “own” Roth Inc, the income really belonged to the taxpayer – and putting that money into the IRA resulted in a taxable “excess contribution”.More specifically, the court held that a $500 investment, absent any other significant risk, does not give rise to any real risk for the IRA.

Also, they should be able to stay there (with minimal belongings) while the work is being done, do I need to compensate them at all for inconvienance, it will take about a week to rewire everything. 

If they fall behind you can file a motion to life the stay. had this exact same thing happen to me late last yearI am told that the minute they are late with a payment now, the motion is filed and grantedthey are also required by the court to set up a repayment schedule, and are strictly held to that too. unfortunately, that schedule may be long.

I really need the "guy with a truck" using a DBA, but since I am  looking to transition out of self managing and there was a possibility to develop a relationship, I sought bids from PMs.I used to belong to a REIA and for a few years got a lot of value, but management changed it got to very expensive and it seems most of the other investors went away, and was to the point where everyone in the room as trying to sell something (except me).
