Hi Katie, do the tax benefits apply to just Real Estate professionals or could it also apply to regular full-time W-2 employees?

Readers should seek professional advice.

Either way, you have a great resource of industry professionals her on BP, so I'm sure you are going to be fine! 

Consulting with a tax professional can help clarify how and when to maximize tax benefits based on your plan.

In addition the cost is roughly the same whether you are using your cleaner or a professional management company. 

For example, they lost a fairly major battle when they tried to argue that only licensed professional can manage short term rental properties. 

DM us if you'd like some 1-on-1 assistance.Hi, Drew, actually I asked about the Sentinel Fund, for a friend and came on BP to ask professional if its legit or not, and now I put this post to go "fishing" for the right team to build, I do thank you for your concern for not being taken advantage of, but thats what this platform is for, to find, hopefully, a real estate agent, property manager etc. when I say fishing- someone that will take the TIME to ASK the right questions and actually has the experience to prove what they can do, have done and will do for you!

Other than "talk to tax professional".
