Recommendations for CPA in southern California that know STR loophole
Hi,
My wife and I both have a W2 job and purchased a vacation home in big bear, CA in late 2022 that is being used as a short term rental. I am looking for a CPA that knows the STR Loophole and can help us with offsetting our W2 income and is taking new clients. The CPA I been using isn't versed in real estate and isn't aware of the STR loophole.
i also wanted to consult with a CPA, If it's worth doing a cost segregation for our situation and what are the tax implications.
Thanks!

I do NOT recommend Amanda Han in California. I called her office, told them I had a tax filing and wanted some help and that my deadline was near. Lot of promise by the woman who answered and promised Amanda would be 'right back' to me. SHE NEVER CALLED. Not a way to treat someone in RE with a deadline
