@officialbiggerpockets: $90K in tax write-offs without IRS Real Estate Professional status? Here is how the STR loophole works: Buy a turnkey, fully furnished short-term rental through Rent to Retirement. Use a cost segregation study to write off ~30% of the home's value in year one (~$90,000). Offset your regular W-2 income to save up to ~$33,000 in taxes. Hand it off to professional property management for hands-free passive income. Learn more about the STR program at RenttoRetirement.com.
