S-corp is a federal tax status.

I have known the owners personally for 60yrs and grew up with the children and still in contact with them socially.

It is tracking ongoing and future projects, buying criteria, funding types and budgets.The most common methods used to build a reliable buyers list include: networking at professional events; email marketing; direct mailing; exchanging business cards; content marketing; maintain a professional website; social media marketing; bandit sign marketing; cold-calling landlords with “For Rent” signs out; marketing on Craigslist; networking with real estate agents.Regardless of what methods you use, what is important is to begin building a reliable list of investors and buyers that you can turn to when you acquire a property and close a deal on that property as quickly as possible.

How many social media contacts do you have.

So communication for confirming any offers coming through was lagged -As China tries to block all of our social and emails stuff we are all so accustomed too.I had a few buyers come and go right before I started my trip and during my stay in China , but I finally got word on Monday morning --( well Monday evening China time)  -- that a Hard Deposit for the property had come in late that past Friday afternoon.

Does anyone have any suggestions on what else I should/could be doing to learn more about the industry or some suggestions on who I should follow on social media, youtube, etc.

It may be a criminal offense for a director of the HOA to provide debt status information that’s not public record to a third party, or it may open up a civil liability issue, or it may violate terms of the HOAs errors and omissions policy.

I like solving problems and if a property comes back on the market after a "pending" status, then there's something there to be solved.

Do I have to pay social security tax/Medicare tax on this extra income? 

This is unusual in our area and the regular social media marketing IMO won’t cut it.
