The investors took the bait hoarded them.  

I LOVE the QuickBooks self employed app.

If you really want to get accurate with your return then take ordinary income tax from the $15K which including self employment tax will run you almost $7K so you'll end up with an $8K profit at best.And  yet even more potential bad news - Depending on your immigration status you will be  subject to FIRPTA withholding of 15% of the sales price of the new property. 

Unlike passive rental income, the income from an active trade or business is subject to self employment tax (a nasty 15% tax commonly referred to a "social security and medicare" by working folks).

We do:Credit checkCriminal background checkEviction history checkVerify employment Check references with last two landlordsI also google them and check for Facebook accounts

If you are employed, you should also be prepared to provide your paycheck and W2.BUT:We look at the documentation differently than a conventional lender does.

But if you research jobs or self-employment ideas, you might find them.

@Christie Gahan PMCs are often lumped in with used car salesmen:(In our opinion this is due to a lot of bait & switching and poor communication.No excuses, but much of this is caused by owners who are always looking for cheaper, but don't care enough about quality.It would be great if someday AI allows a PMC to track every minute their time is spent on a property and send that owner a bill based upon that time, just like lawyers do.

Stone back to visit and inspect the work site and that she can come with a skilled, experienced business attorney, construction engineer, and forensic accountant of her choosing so they can take as much time as they need to examine all the books, inventory, sites, equipment, employment records, etc., and investigate all of the claims made by the folks who are pitching this investment opportunity. 

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.
