From what I've seen on youtube, the bill contains the following:1- Free rent for all tenants across the US regardless of income for a year2- Landlords can file for Government assistance which comes with the following conditions a- No raising of rent for 5 years b- Government gets first right of refusal if you sell your property within 5 years c- You can't discriminate based on criminal background or credit on new tenants d- Something about the tenant getting 10% interest in your property e- You must accept applications from S8 tenants3- The Feds will give money to local governments to help them buy up properties to convert to low income housingThis bill has little chances of passing but if what I read is true, this mindset is terrifying.

I took over the rental unit mid year, so the question is should I keep it rental, continuing to depreciate it, charge the S Corp rent, declare rental income, continue depreciating it, or convert to owner occupied.
