It's done by attaching an explicit statement to your 2020 tax return, referring to Rev Proc 2020-24.

This assumes you don't take any out and don't pay taxes "yet".But lets go back to the S&P500 and lets reference it since you mentioned investing in it. 

The 'monitored without your consent' hopefully refers to homeowner initiated stuff like Ring doorbells, but if the language doesn't make that clear it's worth asking.The 'protection period' is so that untrustworthy buyers don't get an agent to work hard for them for months, ditch the agreement or let it expire, then go on to buy a property the agent helped them find and/or investigate without the agent getting paid for their work.

There are a ton, so it's helpful to have a list to refer to.Good luck! 

But, for reference: I bought my first house with $50k in the bank.  

Should reference monthly rent, due date, security deposit, lease term, ANY oddball agreements (i.e. cut grass for $50/mo off of rent), deferred maintenance requests, etc.

But it does not go into specific whether it's referring to an owner's or lender's title insurance. 

And I am assuming you are referring to a DSCR loan?

The original contract with the seller should not reference an assignment fee. 

@Malcolm Cason, What you're referring to is a "consolidation exchange".
