@Aaron CooperHere you go sir:Florida law defines a vacation rental as any unit or group of units in a condominium or cooperative or any individually or collectively owned single-family, two-family, three-family or four-family house or dwelling within a single complex of buildings which is “transient accommodations” which means “rented to guests more than three times in a calendar year for periods of less than 30 days or 1 calendar month, whichever is less, or which is advertised or held out to the public as a place regularly rented to guests.”Keep in mind that tax rates may vary from each municipality. 

My business (not real estate) survives on tourism and I hope that will continue to grow, so thank you for working to create more accommodations for visitors.It's interesting to hear about Duluth Township being so strict. 

And with some thought by good legal counsel could accommodate a structure where a step transaction would be a remote possibility. 

Then Sage "could not accommodate the closing date" and advised to file the extension.

Working abroad has helped me save a significant portion of my income (more than half can go directly into real estate investments).Taxes are much lower in Asia, free accommodations are provided and goods and services are often significantly less expensive compared to the U.S.

I currently assist clients who provide business professionals and corporate employees with short-term rental accommodations via the rental arbitrage model.

I can definitely see how many investors who own a lot of units would interested in hiring out maintenance only, and then at some point hiring out full service so I'd like to try to accommodate this need.

For example, separate expenses related to the Airbnb portion of your primary home from those related to the rental property.Track expenses for furnishings, appliances, or other items specifically purchased for the rental property.Travel and Transportation:If you travel to manage your rental property or Airbnb, keep track of your mileage, accommodation expenses, and any other travel-related costs.Home Office Deductions:If you have a dedicated space in your home for managing your rental activities, you may be eligible for a home office deduction.

Make sure the lender is familiar with self-directed IRAs and can accommodate this type of transaction.Required Minimum Distributions (RMDs): If you're of the appropriate age (typically 72 or older), you will need to take RMDs from your traditional IRA.

There are many other times when they accommodate a buyer to get a higher price with a  carryback too..
