Therefore only $50k is subject to tax as ordinary income, and even less SE Taxes.

Property tax a little over$3000 a year.Has been on the market over 6 months.

My wife is from Sao Pualo Brazil and we are currently looking at buying some land in that area.

But it was about 29% Colorado Springs commercial tax a week or two ago.

I am an OOC as well and wondering if you dont mind sharing knowledge and experience in regard to tax as Non US Citizen/resident.

Now, of course we're capturing everything re: expenses, purchases, lodging income + cleaning + the cuts taken by listing services, the odd paypal charges, etc.I know that Airbnb collects and remits SOME taxes for a percentage of the STR rental, but I'm not certain it's 100% of the necessary taxes (ie does that include lodging tax, excise tax as well?)...

I have a home that I pay ~30% of the property tax as my neighbors who have purchased recently (I purchased in 1992). 

The replacement property could be bigger by using the deferred tax as additional down payment.     

The thing that eats cash flow is the high property tax (a little over 2% in some cases).

I am in Sao Paulo (one of the biggest cities in the world) and see an amazing amount of vacant commercial bulidings yet there is still 18 floor high-end apartment buildings being built all over.
