It’s a cash intensive operation but it’s FAST (1 – 2 years) that could be managed mostly via e-mail and phone calls and conservatively return 15%.

Our taxes were not support complex and we did them ourselves (Just Schedule C and E) so I think that this is going to vastly complicate our taxes and likely require actually hiring a CPA.

Need help determining the fair rental days. 
Purchased a rental property on July 15, 2019 and it took 3 weeks (repairing and making improvements) to get it ready to list on the MLS for rent.  The property was listed ...

Advent Health just recently took over Florida Hospital and is in the process of improving service and renovating, so coupled with West Marion and Ocala Regional there is a good demand for doctor's and nurses which UF just keeps pumping out every year :) As for manufacturing, E-One (Fire and Emergency equipment) is still a big player in town, Signature Brands has a presence (Betty Crocker).

You want to see the Seller's Schedule E for the past 2 years, minimum, to know what the real rents and real expenses are. 

And then, most importantly, start to go see those houses in person when you get a text or e-mail regardless of whether or not that particular house meets your criteria on paper.

With all what is going on in the online business and e-commerce.

I just use Quicken, set categories to match Schedule E, then use tags to designate which property.

2) Only looking for an accountant to fill out my Schedule E and Form 1040 for CY19.Are there any other tax forms I should be aware of, besides the two listed above?
