Self-paced
I am the sole owner of a residential property of which I am the landlord.. do I somehow include this on my resume? I am considering it in terms of 1) it's a job sort of, as I do profit off of it, 2) i've been doing it for a few years so it is part of what has kept me busy which adds to what I have been busy doing while completing my undergrad, working full-time, and being a single mother, so I think it adds to the evidence that I am able to balance a multitude of tasks successfully, and 3) shows leadership and management skills (maybe?). I have my resume pretty complete but this actually just crossed my mind today. Should I somehow address it on my resume? At the very bottom under skills and interests?

Thanks I agree, definitely a good way to word it thanks for the input.
This sounds like a good idea. Besides, I don't really see any downsides to it. It certainly sounds positive to me.
I think you can put it on your resume. Is the property in a company name or LLC? I would position it as a Self-employed / Landlord / Property Manager with a description of the duties, what you have improved upon or learned over the few years you have been doing it.
Maybe if it were an entire apartment building it would be worth it. Although owning the rental property is a bit more challenging than just owning the house I live in.
@gregoryalexanderdevine723 I'm not sure how it shows leadership.... but maybe management. I'm leaning towards not adding it because owning property isn't really a job, just like owning your own house isn't considered a job nor something you add on a resume.
