          March 31, 1983, petitioners purchased 2001 West Washington                  
          Street, Charleston, West Virginia (the Charleston property) as              
          rental property.  Petitioners maintained the house and obtained             
          tenants without the assistance of a management company.                     
               With their 1989 and 1990 joint Federal income tax returns,             
          petitioners filed Schedules E, Supplemental Income and Loss, to             
          report their rental income and expenses.  On May 9, 1994, after             
          respondent's notice of deficiency was issued, petitioners filed             
          amended returns for 1989 and 1990.  The following charts show the           
          expenses claimed by petitioners on their original and amended               
          returns, the expenses allowed by respondent, and the amounts                
          still in dispute after concessions.4
