(Someone to receive notices on your behalf)Residential income properties need a Transaction Privilege license in most locations (Rental Tax)Property Management is a specialty in the industry and it's very possible your sister has her license with a broker that doesn't allow her to do property management?

I learned that there are great opportunities to purchase low maintenance, fully remodeled homes in places where there are high quality management teams in place that can produce nearly passive income.

Kinda fun tbh.I ended up having 2 people just from talking and lifestlye (pets, kids, jobs), I picked one as they have a more consistent income and did a vetting on credit/background for around $40.Within 3 days, the vacancy was filled.RenovationNo property is perfect.

Typical rates are 8-12% of income either monthly or yearly depending on manager.

Nothing wrong with renting out rooms which is called (Boarder income). 

Also, setting up one of the units as a medium term or short term rental to increase income.

The east side is mostly industrial and low income housing.

Adding a negligible amount of tax revenue through income?

What investment choices would you recommend to offset W2 income taxes?  

The rest of my tax/income situation is very basic.
