It seems if you are far away from this property then it might be a good idea to consider hiring the services of an experienced property manager who really could provide ongoing communication during the whole stay.

We purchased a property in early October and are placing it in service this week (mid November).We had intended to run a cost segregation study and try to accelerate depreciation which we can deduct against our W2 (assuming material participation).However, we have been reading through the IRS guidelines (eg publication 946 on Property Depreciation) and there seems to be the concept of "short year" which would mean that we can only deduct ~1.5/12 of a year's worth of depreciation in 2024.Is this correct or are there any different rules for STRs specifically?

So I did that and my property revenue cannot service the debt but using my strategy I'm cash flowing $1100/month after PITI on a new construction home under warranty. 

I wanted to reach out regarding a serious matter involving Jay Tenenbaum (and Seth Gershberg his partner), as I know you are an servicer/educator and wanted to make sure people that you surround yourself with don't fall victim to his bad business practices.

I'd recommend getting multiple quotes from service providers to see what pricing is going to look like per square footage.Without too much information provided and depending on the size of your home it could be anywhere from $5,000-$15,000+

I have found that it is difficult enough to get people to call when they should without charging for 'service calls.'

The repair shop includes 10 service bays to be able to service a variety of cars.

Owners mistakenly ASSUME all PMCs offer the exact SAME SERVICES and PERFORM those services EXACTLY THE SAME WAY, so price is the only differentiator – so, they often select the first PMC they call or that calls them back!

One that I am interested in does allow you to self manage, but does that present an issue with guests who try to call for service or use the front desk?
