Investors & landlords

Yes. Topic No. 414 Rental Income and Expenses - IRS says:

Amounts paid to cancel a lease – If a tenant pays you to cancel a lease, this money is also rental income and is reported in the year you receive it.

 

Excellent distinction between gross and rental income, great question.
