I'm surprised by some of the responses here about how people like VRBO more than AirBNB.

I've also held of holding properties in individual LLCs that are owned by one S corporation, which allows for a 60 / 40 split between ordinary income (regular tax) and dividends (capital gains tax rate).With the goal of minimizing taxation and liability protection, what would be the recommendation from more experienced people here?

Please let me know as well if you are starting a group for people on Long Island.  

I don't know how many people are going to show up but here's the link.

We have a member round table discussion on Fridays at 9 am cst.And we have a calendar of events with events from area landlord groups and member meetups.While we are still on zoom we do try to find ways to still be able to connect and talk with each other so our events are not all just another webinar with people talking at you.Hope to connect.

I bring a list of the offers (if you have multiple offers), this gives you the base to tell the appraiser if it does not sell to this buyer other people think/want the house at this price too.Also, bring permits for anything that has been done.
