Oh the house is out of state - which adds another level of stress!  

My mom had a stroke in April which has eliminated any possibility of her ever returning to her extremely stressful 7 job.

My brother and I are wanting to re t out my current home.

I (Dillon Duffy) have been working on a building for a few weeks now and listening to Bigger Pockets podcast and videos on YouTube and trying to self learn how to navigate through this exciting but stressful project.I purchased my current home in May 2021 for 156k.

Assuming you have two spouses who each make $300,000, your hourly rate is about $150 / hour assuming you work about 2000 hours a year.I personally think it is better to continue investing in LTR which will likely be less time consuming / stressful to STR's.You don't want to exchange something where you make $150 / hour(at work) to something else where you may only make $10 / hour.Best of luck

As well as moving from higher cap ex exposure to lower cap ex exposure.Cash flow may go down but when the other components of the IRR go up ( appreciation, depreciation, and amortization of the loan) your IRR goes to the moon and more than offsets any drop in cash flowJust make sure you stress test and can withstand any drop in cash flow.

I've been using freetaxusa and turbotax and neither software has the option on t he Schedule to file it in a way that enacts the STR Loophole and allows the loss to be offset against my W2 income. 

I did what Kimberly T. mentioned and it worked out fine.

It was stressful, and it was only one property.
