Advertising your rental using social media.

Nearly every property we purchase is surrounded by an owner's social situation which catalyzes their choice to sell.

But as an S-Corp you are required to draw a salary, pay social security, medicare and unemployment tax on it and, in some places, have worker's comp and general liability insurance.

You can hire a PM, but honestly-- your tenants won't want to talk to you, this isn't social hour, you won't be friends...   

After investing in real estate for the just six years I now have enough income to retire without having to draw on my Social Security.

@Jim McConnell you could ask for bank statement, utility bills, birth certificate, social security card and other proof.

I also like the social sustainability component of the investment.  

I know I am more of a lurker than a poster, and less social than more social, but BP has been integral in my success and even in making positive life changes non-real-estate related!

I looked at what my Social Security, pension, 401K, and Roth would bring in and with 10 rentals we should be well above the income level we have now.

We initially investigated whether there would be a market for disabled persons, we consulted with a local social worker, and a local healthcare worker, they did not think there would be much of a market.
