https://www.thetaxadviser.com/issues/2012/dec/clinic-story-06.htmlIn determining whether the income should be classified as ordinary income or capital gain, the court evaluated nine criteria: (1) the taxpayer’s purpose in acquiring the property; (2) the purpose for which the property was subsequently held; (3) the taxpayer’s everyday business and the relationship of the income from the property to the taxpayer’s total income; (4) the frequency, continuity, and substantiality of sales of property; (5) the extent of developing and improving the property to increase sales revenue; (6) the extent to which the taxpayer used advertising, promotion, or other activities to increase sales; (7) the use of a business office for the sale of property; (8) the character and degree of supervision or control the taxpayer exercised over any representative selling the property; and (9) the time and effort the taxpayer habitually devoted to sales of property.

Greg Dowdell Rhode Island & Water Metering
24 June 2019 | 1 reply
@Greg Dowdell I haven’t done this, mainly because the landlord in RI is ultimately responsible for ensuring that the property has running water and sewer, which in practice usually means s/he pays the bill to ensure that’s the case.That said, you can certainly try to bill it back to the tenant, but if they don’t pay you will end up paying the bill anyway because if the water is shut off then you will have breached your implied warranty of habitability, and I believe it would count against you if you ended up in eviction court.So, basically you have to hope that the tenants are good enough to care about paying their water bills consistently, but not so good that they google (or ask) around and find out it’s ultimately the landlord’s responsibility.My main concern as a landlord would be how it would play out in eviction court

If you do not do it, you could get fined, and if you need to evict a tenant the court probably would not hear your case.For billing back water/sewer to tenants, it's best to keep it in your name, and then just send (or email) them a copy of the bill each month.
