Rental income is taxed as ordinary income and you pay according to your marginal tax bracket, which is between 10% and 37%.
However, because the IRS deems rental income to be "passive" it needs to be reported separately from ordinary W-2 income. Most real estate investors need to file a Schedule E which is the part of the form 1040 that deals with supplemental income and loss, such as rental income and royalties.
