I have been following BP about 18 months while I medically recover.  

She won't specify what the disability is, though she says she can provide documentation from a medical provider, and it is mental health related.

I am negotiating a lease with a physician for my medical office building.

For example, my wife is in the medical field and really enjoys what she does, and trusts me to make the majority of the financial and investment decisions.

Hi @Rich HupperTo answer your original question, you can convert to an S-Corp and possibly backdate the effective date to avoid SE tax.To save even more on tax you can employ other strategies such has hiring kids, augusta loophole, revenue stream separation, section 105 medical expenses reimbursement, etc....There are a lot of possibilities to save.

They are "medical equipment", for lack of a better phrase.Or perhaps, outside of the cats, she is just not the best and/or first application you have received anyway.If she is able to prove they are all ESAs and you do rent to her, just because you can't charge her an additional security deposit, doesn't mean she isn't responsible for any extra damages her ESAs cause. 

@Julie Rolfe existing home sales and new construction are on fire here and the rentalMarkets about to get better due to a new Advent health Mega hospital going in and University of North Florida medical training facility for respiratory therapist opening.

We have become a technology industry and medically expanded and  driven City with a huge influx of younger folks. 

Asking fellow investors is akin asking neighbors for medical advice: everybody has an opinion, and all of them are wrong.

From memory, the letter must be from a medical professional that is treating the patient (i.e. cannot be someone from the internet whom they have never met).Petscreening.com is an option, but you must use that service for ALL your animals lest you be accused of inconstancy in your business practices regarding ESAs, and they charge for non-ESAs.You mentioned your wife was allergic.
