It's my business, my passion, and I guess my identity :)

You cannot simply close with buyer (like all gurus say) then turn around and pay seller then transfer title to buyer- That is ILEGAL A way around this in case you cannot get transactional funding - Have your closing attorney draw up a Promissory not in submission to the buyer in which you will secure your equitable interest within the contract to the buyer...

You're better off starting with something more grounded, like securing funds and getting a few transactions under your belt.

For context, I have a business degree in marketing (not good I know) and work for the biggest single family rental company in the US doing entry level customer service.

Usually, the rental income is considered effectively connected with a U.S. trade or business, and therefore, it is taxed under the effective regime.

It is making me sign up for their banking account in order to send my tenant the ability to make payments through their site.But what I think I am realizing is that I can have my tenant make payment through Zelle which is connected to my Chase Business Account.

Your business and success will rely on your property’s reviews.

Of the two multi family transactions we've assisted so far this year; one went pending in one week and the other had a back up offer, so timing and preparation are definitely critical to execution. 

Background: I am scaling up an Airbnb Vacation Property Management Business.

If they want to file a police report, that's their business.
