I feel Ike they pivoted quite a bit in the last few years since city and subsequent county license requirements spurred an STR plateau and the motivations are a bit deeper and multi-purposed now.Take parallel economies, such as Uber/Lyft, the ONLY two TNC license holders in the state and each year pay an excise tax of a few hundred thousand a piece, if not more (just for the permit, not including the whats taken from drivers).

Crater Lakes and the Oregon coast both within a days drive, and all the Californians are taking over Oregon driving prices up ;)

Unfortunately, their deduction was disallowed following an IRS audit and a subsequent visit to Tax Court.

On your subsequent tax returns, you'll list the property as an income-producing asset, you'll take your depreciation, and you'll declare any income that you generate from the rents.
