Let me explain with example:- Assume I purchase land worth 50K in August 2024, and then hire contractor/architect and spend over 100+ hours discussing the building plans, etc to either construct a SFR home or a Manufactured/Mobile home.- I will also supervise the construction and other related activities (but will NOT build the house myself) .- Let's assume the total cost of construction is 200K (or 150K if it's a manufactured/mobile home).My Question would thus be- Can the STR tax loophole strategy allow me to offset 60% of the 200K amount that I paid towards construction of the home, (or 60% of 150K if it's a Manufactured home)Any success stories with this kind of approach?

But if there is ample room in the bedroom and you can take a single sink to double vanity, or add a dedicated water closet, or take a 3x3 shower into a 3x5 or larger, making the bathroom more luxurious, than I could see a good ROI on that.While the area may be very nice, the price point you are talking (and I don't know the specific market) is borderline starter home prices.

I was recently involved in a thread where the OP was almost radical in her dedication to her short-term $savings at the expense of long term gain, and yet was bemoaning having had a mentally unstable tenant turn vicious on her.If you "face the beast" you must expect to be battered mercilessly at some point.
