When we stop hearing of folks up and quiting and employers saying they are well staffed with productive workers, only then would I hire a PM.Unless you have some longer term relationship with the PM and have insights into their internal staffing and capacity, I would not "try" someone new or growing.   

There are a number of large employers coming to Spokane or expanding (Amazon/Fairchild AFB). 

@Bonnie Griffin Kaake I had prefaced earlier that I was referring to the ability to use cost segregation to offset W-2 earnings or self employment income for high income earners.There is no advantage to using cost segregation for 6-7 figure earned income earners unless they can use bonus depreciation to offset income immediately.

These activities would include advertising, "for sale" signs, a sales office, and employment of sales personnel.

What if you went to work like the people at SUNSHINE MORTGAGE in Atlanta did and then you get there and find that you know longer have employement.

I've worked for employers as an investment annalist and I learned that skill from an appraiser..

So you can hire yourself to work for your company, giving you W-2 income and avoiding self-employment tax.Can anyone suggest disadvantages to using such an organization?

But you may be responsible for your share of unemployment tax, Social security tax, workers comp, state and county employment tax, etc, for this employee.

He has refused bi-yearly inspections since his employment ended, and since he was a trusted employee, we never demanded entry.About an hour after he turned in his keys today, I went to the apartment for pre-turnover inspection.

So, after some brainstorming, it occurred to me that I could master lease the properties from them for "90% of collected rents less expenses".Then it occured to me that I just converted what would have been self employment income for managing properties into rental income since I'm leasing the properties.Any tax experts care to chime in on whether that would fly in an audit?
