Looking for CPA - STR Tax Strategy

Ryan Elam

Hi there, 

I'm a new STR investor and am looking for a CPA who is an STR tax expert.

In particular, I am looking to deduct 20-25% my STR purchase price.

You would probably need to do a cost segregation and keep track of furniture and fixtures (to furnish the airbnb). Depending on level of income/REP status, you may be able to deduct some, all, or none, of the potentially accelerated depreciation. I'd recommend talking to a few CPAs on here and seeing who you resonate with and determining if it's worth it to do a cost seg. 

Typically, you can get larger year 1 write offs due to bonus depreciation of the items mentioned above.
