Post: STR Permit Requirement

Once the 365 days are up do you see an issue in getting the permit? Will those 1,225 a year be met? Trying to understand the likelihood of being denied all together.

Thank you for all the feedback. They came back to me with such a lowball number for the master lease program it wasn't even worth discussing.

@Matt Schreiber any updates on how this is going? Recently spoke with them about their master lease program for my STR in Oceanside. I have no interest in looking at their shared revenue model but figured I would look at what they had to offer for this model.

If I am in long term area but want to operate as an STR am I able to create a sublease from a long term lease that I can then lease to people for under 30 days. A property management company mentioned this as their work around saying they have guests sign a lease stating they are subleasing from them.


So a professional property manager advised you on how to skirt the law? Classic!

We don't recommend violating the law. If short-term rentals are not allowed, don't operate a short-term rental. If you're open to breaking the law to build wealth, why not rob banks or deal in fentanyl? 

Thank you everyone for your feedback. I came to this forum as I thought people would contribute valuable info without casting dispersions. I was looking for advice on loopholes in this such as one looks for tax loopholes. If you don't have any, that is fine, if it makes you feel better to make assumptions that is fine too. I, personally, wouldn't sit behind a keyboard and throw stones but I guess that is just me. Good luck in 2023 everyone. 

Sorry you didn’t get the answer you wanted….there is no work around. Short term is short term, period….it doesn’t matter who is leasing/sub leasing from who or what you call it….the end users would be renting for less than 30 days.

 @Wayne Brooks got it. Thank you Wayne.

Post: 1031: lower cost replacement property

@Steve K.@Jeff Nash Thank you for your responses. To be clear, the only part that is hypothetical is the last part of selling my second property and finding a lower cost 3rd property. While I understand this would not put me free and clear of a tax burden per "like Kind" description, I am trying to understand the calculation method. I am trying to reduce my debt burden so am willing to take a tax hit(depending on the size of it). Hoping that clarifies my question but if not please let me know. Thank you again for your help.

I am trying to understand what my potential tax implications would be in this example scenario.

1st property purchase:

$600k with $150k down 

Sold for $932,500

2nd property:

Purchase price $1,925,000

$385k down  


Sold for $2.25m  

Now let’s say I want to get a smaller property after that. Maybe $750k. 

What is my tax exposure and how do I calculate it?

@Carl N. - did you ever end up putting a pitch or PPM together for investors? I'm looking to put a deal together for raw land and trying to find a financial template, let me know if you found anything. Thanks!

@Andy Kelly I sent something very simple out to about 7-8 family and friends. Only got 1 yes and felt doing all the paperwork and setting up of a company wasn’t worth it so did it solo. Makes it much harder but we shall see if it was worth it in about a year or so.

Hey @Carl N., just to be clear, do you mean if you happen to stop by while looking into your STR?

Or do you mean providing a membership or tickets for your guests to use while in your STR?

The former, no is the answer.

The later would be yes, it would be deductible. Check with your CPA.


I figured as much but can't figure a way to make it a pass available to all. Appreciate the feedback.
