I understand your aversion to paying a tax professional, but you would be better off.Your attempt to DIY this thing may result in losing some of the benefits and even triggering an IRS audit.

If you want to keep earning the same amount as before, you can slightly raise your nightly rate to cover the 0.5% increase.Example:If you charge $100 per night, Airbnb used to take $15 (15%).Now they’ll take $15.50 (15.5%).You’d earn 50 cents less per booking unless you raise your price a bit.So you could adjust your rate to $100.50 or $101 to keep your income the same.The new 15.5% Host-Only Fee, is a major win for guest experience and overall conversion imo.

Hey everyone,I’m comparing two 3-unit properties in Chicago and could use some insight from local investors.Option 1 – South Side (near Woodlawn area):Priced around $830KModern finishes, newer construction styleCurrent rents around $2,195, $2,000, and $2,000The area has a lot of new developments and new 3-flats going upMy concern: with so many new buildings being added, there’s likely going to be more rental competition, and property taxes may jump once reassessments catch up to all the new construction.Option 2 – Pilsen area:Priced around $735KAlso modern updates but smaller units (two 2-beds and one 3-bed)Taxes are currently low, but likely because the property hasn’t been reassessed since the recent renovationsThe area feels more established, with strong tenant demand and characterSo I’m weighing the growth potential and higher risk in the newer South Side market versus the more stable rents and potentially upcoming tax adjustments in Pilsen.Would you lean toward the newer-construction area with possible tax jumps but longer-term appreciation upside, or the lower-tax, established neighborhood that might get hit with reassessment later?

Hey everyone,
