Basically, everything under my name on Schedule E was lumped into one checking account for rentals. 

Your income is based on your 1040s, specifically for you your schedule E.

It's definitely a difficult subject to talk about, but awareness is worth its weight in gold if it helps someone else. 

That's very true that looking at the comps of an area will be a good measure when prospecting the ARV, but I was just curious more specifically with the physical features to fix up in general... the features that tend to hold the most weight in calculating ARV if that makes sense. 

@Darius Howell most anyone who owns MF today believes it is worth it's weight in gold!

For instance, we have several book we are reading together and we simply title the thread whatever book we are reading at the time like "E-Myth Revisited."

Add to this that you can cash-out refinance on your R/E asset and pay no taxes on the withdrawal of capital and then re-invest the proceeds, and have the ability to use (TODAY) the investments outside of your retirement account, it seems to me there's no comparison. 

@Kaveh E.

I go to the gym 4 days a week atleast when I'm not working.. cardio and weight lifting. 

When I enter this information in TurboTax under the 1099-Misc income section, I see my tax due amount spin upward despite the fact that I have accumulated nearly 70K in passive losses this year.Or, instead of entering this 1099-Misc income in TurboTax under the 1099 section, do I simply add it as another asset in Schedule E and use the gross amounts provided in the 1099 as my gross rents?
