Hi BP folks..I've been noticing in Cleveland quite a few Triplexes for sale but are on public record as being a *Duplex*.  

Even the IRS publications are not stating the rules clearly. 

I am not an attorney and I do not want to provide specific details in a public forum.

Planning performs a thorough review to make this determination including searching publicly and also checking to see if anything was reported to the SF Rent Board or a DBI complaint.

Unlike a lot of BP publications, it's really more of an extended pamphlet with some good pieces of information, but if it is "the book", it's only because it's the "only book".The chapters are approachable and reader-friendly, but you won't find any nuggets of golden information within the pages if you already listened to the authors' appearance on the BP podcast.

Location is also important, as house hackers may seek properties near public transport, schools, and restaurants.

Most all of them will have liens; the ones I have checked public records on do anyway and it is doubtful the builder will pay them.

I have reviewed the IRC publication for prohibit transactions between the plan and a disqualified person which contain a few criteria including selling, exchanging and leasing the property.

The current document you probably want to look at is this:https://www.irs.gov/publications/p925#en_US_2023_publink1000...Generally, the passive activity loss for the tax year isn’t allowed.

From a publically available standpoint, Air DnA and Pricelabs puts out great data for their paid products on nightly rate, occupancies, etc.
