Hello all,Has anyone sold a short term rental owned over a year  as a non real estate professional that qualified as short term capital gains tax deductions with expenses and depreciation?

Many investors I have worked with buy in out-of-state markets with steady job growth, strong rental demand, and landlord-friendly laws.For first-time investors, I highly recommend working with a professional property manager.

RentRedi checked all the boxes for me, RentRedi made this first time property novice, show up as a complete professional management service.I can list my property Receive/review Pre-qual apps, full application and access to the background check with ease.Schedule showings, send approval emailsSet up my rentals and collect rent electronically.Handle maintenance and so much more all through the RentRedi app.

Will they "check themselves" from bad behavior when they see a professional company with professional services, legally reviewed lease, etc. managing their day-to-day?

Readers should seek professional advice.

These are professionals with additional training and a stricter code of ethics.

Usually MTR comes fully furnished with utilities included, so you pay for the convenience.if the area has traveling nurses, other professionals that come for a few months for work they normally pay more, in certain cases the employer pays the rent not familiar with that particular market,  but worth looking into it.

Any guidance from experienced investors, real estate professionals, or anyone who has faced a similar situation would be greatly appreciated. 

Can this person now be "a real estate" professional?
