While the state is tenant friendly, eventually they will be forced out and at that point it will be without the offer you gave them and with a black mark on their record making it harder to find another place.Since you are looking at flipping the property, you need them out to do the work and I would discuss that with them - not the flip portion but the work that needs to be done and can't be done with them in it. 

that's why I am doing this forum to keep me accounted for my actions)So... for this week, I think I will put more effort into finishing the two books, "asking questions the Sandler way, and "Prospect the Sandler way", finish all the onboard materials for Exp, attend the team meeting, set up social medias, watch the videos I marked up on the "subto" training vault

Deegan and @Arda Bircan There are technically 7 Tests for Material Participation (but 3 that are most common) -> the individual 500 hour mark, that the activity of the individual is substantially all, and that the individual participates more than 100 hours + no-one else spends more time than them.Litmus Test: Are your hours integral to the operationsThe hours that qualify must be substantially all hours and have a legitimate impact on the rental activities.Activities that generally count: showing the property for rent, taking tenant applications & screening tenants, preparing & negotiating leases, cleaning & preparing the units for rent, repairs, and improvements, managing the construction, purchasing supplies & materials, inspecting the property, responding to tenant complaints & inquiries, collecting & depositing rents, evicting tenants, writing & placing advertisements, and working on your websiteActivities that don't count: education & research, investor-type activities, and travel time..
