Basically: it can't hurt to research it more thoroughly by reaching out and engaging people in conversation as you do more of your own research into the law on the backend.

It builds trust and visibility.Explore the forums and local groups: Jump into conversations related to your market or area of expertise.

That way you get experience getting in front of people and having conversations early on.

I had a conversation over lunch yesterday with a private lender here in CHS that is about to take back a local failed flip where the borrower's entire stake will be wiped out, and there will still be a deficiency owed to the lender. 

With the STR Loophole back in the mix, I've been having A LOT more casual conversations (from the gym to the dinner table) about accelerated depreciation!

At the time of purchase for each owner after original conversion, it was not an issue. 

If you have a STR, the first conversation you should have is if the property will be treasted as passive or active.The next conversation will be whether you should get a cost segregation study or not.It is hard to say whether $4,000 is a high price without knowing the complete picture of your tax profile.Do you have just a W-2 and one STR.

While I do not have any open positions, I'd be happy to have a conversation and answer any questions. 

Assuming that the county enables the property zoning/licensing to do the conversion, what math would you run on a Padsplit conversion to include revenue potential, including total investment, and ROI? 

Once you’ve got a feel for that, it’ll be easier to know what kind of knowledge and connections to pursue.Start having real conversations with people who are doing it.
