Could VRBO users from Michigan provide some clarity about the topic of sales tax/lodging tax collection and payment to the state.

Anyone answering is not responding as a Tax accountant, Insurance expert or as a Financial advisor.  

If so, there are no transfer taxes due. 

Whether you need a CPA with just three rentals depends on the complexity of your situation and your comfort level with DIY tax prep.If things are pretty straightforward, you might be fine with tax software for now.

@Roque MirandaBigger Pockets is a great place to find a tax accountant specializing in real estate taxation.A good real estate accountant can save you thousands of dollars by leveraging entity selection and formation, tax deductions, cost segregations, bonus depreciation and tax planning.I recommend finding an accountant specializing in real estate taxation, business taxation, financial planning and tax planning.Consider working with your accountant remotely to expand your options.I would also recommend looking for an accountant willing to work with you throughout the year.

Somebody bought that house at Tax Sale.   

Hey @Nick Gallon Martin, I recommend speaking to a Tax Planner/CPA, @Jeff Nash would be a great resource for you.

It would/could be only 15% capital gains tax and yes you could/would deduct all selling costs including commissions and transfer taxes.

I would search the BP forums because your tax / legal related questions likely have already been asked.However, it doesn't hurt to still ask the forum what your questions are.

I set up tax lien as a keyword alert so I get alerted when someone mentions them.
