I’m on my second property, which is my current home.

So typically depreciation and expensing of costs usually happen on the placed in service date.

This was a great way to begin my journey, as my initial motivation for obtaining my real estate license was to purchase my own home, which I successfully did this year.Now, I’m embarking on a new adventure as a real estate investor.

I'm amazed more people don't pick up on this and act accordingly.  

Would appreciate any feedback on those who have faced a similar issue.

I would appreciate anyone’s comments on this type strategy good or bad and your opinion of these indexes.  

Which is better in my situation - doing repairs myself (possibly $50k) and increase the likelihood of selling (not incurring holding cost of interest on HELOC and PITI on 30 yr/mortgage).

I work full time and have partnered with others in DFW on assignment of contract deals for a few years now.

Does anyone have a suggestion on how I could accomplish this through Airbnb?

Now my primary contact, Dave Sherman, is saying that I need to deal with Bruce Wuollet on the matter (as apparently they aren't sharing information with each other).
