Hello! I know there are a lot of topics on whether to report Airbnb income on schedule e or c but it still seems like a grey area still. Most resources say Schedule E however other resources say that if the average rental duration is less than 7 days then you need to report on Schedule C. We have two Airbnbs that we manage ourselves, but have a cleaner than does the turnover. Wouldn't this be considered more non-passive activity then (manage bookings, communicate with guests, order supplies, upkeep of properties) and need to be reported on Schedule C? 

Hello! I currently own one long term and two short term rental properties. I'm working on getting a third STR but struggling to find a lender that will use STR income towards the mortgage application, therefore making my debt to income ratio too high. Any suggestions on how to go about getting an investment mortgage a different way?
