You will have employees, customers, stakeholders in investors.  

Hi @Amy Davidson,To me seems like a specialty item for those building a custom home, with a builder who excels with using that material.

If you know what you want to do and what an ideal customer looks like, you have a starting point.

Often times those who enter the alt lending space wind up with novices as their customer base with poorly located collateral and limited experience.  

Unfortunately, you have to call these OTA's many times over until you get a customer service rep who sympathizes, is knowledgeable about the platform rules and is willing to actually help you.If you don't want to ride it out, i think you have options.

Everyone has opinions but some are not based in reality.If you are not providing significant services, like daily cleaning, on site chef for meals, custom tours etc. you should be filing on a schedule E. https://theshorttermshop.com/is-short-term-rental-schedule-e...

Unfortunately, there are numerous other frustrated customers who are dealing with similar, if not worse, situations, myself included.

I believe businesses should solve problems and add value to their customers rather than trying to sell them something they don't want or need.

Hello BP fam! I have a family member who will be staying in the ATL area from May 5th to May 21st in the ATL area. He's looking for a STR or rent by rooms while down there. He may be stationed there around oct/nov and...

@Martin Nussbaum @Jason CollinsIt is important that you work with tax professionals who understand the unique tax consequences and planning opportunities surrounding STRs.If the average period of customer use is seven days or less (which would encompass nearly all AirBNBs, VRBOs, etc), the rental is not considered a rental activity under the passive activity loss rules.What this means is that whether one is a real estate professional or not does not matter.
