Looking for advice on how to maximize tax benefits on an upcoming conversion of my primary home to a long term rental (temporarily).

This one is more recommended if you are thinking of doing a flip or a temporary investment since it doesnt have long term effects like the refinance. 

I recommend reading “Long-Distance Real Estate Investing: How to Buy, Rehab, and Manage Out-of-State Rental Properties” - I found it to be very helpful when I got started investing 2.5 years ago.

I wrote a really long piece on due diligence you might find helpful: https://www.biggerpockets.com/blog/due-diligence-ultimate-gu...
