Tax benefit of STR/Tiny home - Will it work ?

[Preet Oberoi]

Hello everyone, I am looking into buying my first Airbnb and the sole driver for this choice is to be able to take depreciation of my two LTR properties against my W2. Can anyone poke a hole in this approach ? Also, within this approach, the option that attracts me the most is purchasing and installing a 'tiny home' on a campground that allows it. Has anyone done this and can share how to go about it and their experinece ? I also wonder if this unconventional STR would pass the criteria for the STR test for tax purposes. Any insights you can shre around these questions would be super helpful.
