I have a W2 job in a high tax bracket, but we are planning on owning Airbnb’s that my wife actively manages along with her working as a real estate agent...Our goal was to have her materially involved so that we could write off potential losses against my W2 income.

I am mostly interested in rentals but will plan doing doing an occasional flip when it makes more sense.

Another important consideration is whether you plan to manage the rental yourself or hire a property manager to handle tenant issues and maintenance.I recommend starting by answering these questions.

If that doesn't work, you can ask the court to establish a payment plan or garnish their wages. 

With careful planning, attention to detail, and skilled craftsmanship, our goal is to enhance the property's value while preserving its unique character and charm.

I plan to grab a mentor along the way at some point.

Let me know how we could connect to put a game plan together for these locations!

What it seems like you are doing right now is stretching and rushing.You have a good nest egg for your annual salary, you don't want to burn that all and have to wait a few years to build it back up again.

I waited the full year before bringing it back up to them.

If you have 18-20% equity, just sell as originally planned, take your profits, and move on to the next one.
