If you think ahead, you can minimize recapture with the right tax planning.So what is recapture?

Quote from @Ashish Acharya: Looking ahead to 2024 and beyond, you can treat it as an STR if the average stay is still under 7 days.

I haven't thought as far ahead as looking at potential areas to buy property.

I handle payments by draws and I must always be ahead and work versus payments.

Pay the bill yourself, then reimburse yourself by charging the tenants based on a formula.

RE has always been a big thing that always intrigued and in 2024 I went ahead and took the risk of buying a fix and flip investment with a partner and soon it will be on the market!

My question was should I give her a heads-up?

I have learned to color code (highlighter) and plan the month/year or week ahead. 

Just a heads-up: with the way the insurance market has been here over the past couple of years, this is accurate as of today, but things could look very different (for better or worse) in 6+ months.

And your net worth will thank you.If you still want to go ahead, you'd be better off buying a house than an apartment because, while the value of the building itself will go to 0, you'll still have the value of the land, bearing in mind that the land might actually lose value too given the depopulation and the yen depreciation.Sorry if I'm pooping a party but make sure you understand what you're getting into (which you're already doing by asking the forum) and then make the decision that's right for you according to your objectives.
