If you didn't, seems like a bad / inexperienced accountant to suggest such a thing.In my opinion, its the same as telling someone to go to a trade school and get a new career.A STR can help you lower your taxes but I would only do it if you were planning to purchase a STR.A STR is a business, you are responsible for furnishing the house, responding to guests, providing a great stay and experience, etc

Hello,A job relocation to San Francisco CA early this year is making me ponder if I should be selling my owner occupied duplex in Jersey City and buy something in Berkeley CA due to its proximity to San Francisco and has some fairly decent schools  for my kids and also UC Berkeley .The low  2.5% interest rate on the Jersey City property turned into a golden chain but I think I am done with managing tenants and property and would like to get more into an Equity play.

A developer did a conversion where a high school was turned into 104 condo units.

I came across a duplex listing in a good school district that is also within my budget.

My other investments focus on the mid-term rental space, and I’m drawn to Jacksonville to stay near hospitals and schools, which are essential for my target demographic.I’d love insights on the strength of the current market here, any projected trends, and tips for making a solid investment in this location.

She is very old school, she mentioned that the seller would only contribute to the “traditional” closing costs, around 2k 

Look for parks, schools, groceries, and local hangouts—these things matter!

They don't realize you pay the money and you do more work, but you grow quicker and the magic is in the other people also paying the money - your tribe.

When you get close to that magical place it would be pretty nice to have your properties paid off entirely, right?  

However, it seems like it might be too late to secure tenants for this school year.
