Deductions & credits

Carl - This is really useful information.  If I am reading this right, you don't think one needs to put a rental property (especially when we have just one property) into S-Corp or LLC.  It is best managed as personal income?  Is that right?  

However, does this expose your personal assets to certain liabilities?  As you mention, a financial planner suggested to form a business to avoid a tenant coming after your personal assets!  Any thoughts?

 

I had my property managed by a property management company before and I always had the 1099-MISC to report income.  Since NOV 2024, my wife and I manage it ourselves.  So, we have 1099-MISC for part of the income.  The last two months' income is received via wire transfer to my personal account.  How & where do I report the self-managed income?   Appreciate your input.  

Thanks
