Investors & landlords

No matter what your city code states, for income tax purposes:

  1. You are not required to report rental income if you're all roommates and you share housing expenses.
  2. On the other hand, the IRS requires you to report rental income and expense if you are renting your home to make a profit. See Where do I enter income and expenses from a rental property?
