Build an asset.

your income taxes.

We source your short-term rental, help you buy and launch it, and include a cost segregation study. Your CPA determines whether the resulting loss can offset your W-2 income.

The deduction reduces taxable income. Your tax savings depend on eligibility, available income and the tax rates the loss actually offsets.

The Woodland Retreat

A hypothetical Broken Bow cabin with a separately funded furnishing package.

Modeled first-year tax write-off$147,696

This is a modeled tax loss, not a dollar-for-dollar tax saving. Actual deductions and use of the loss depend on your facts and CPA review.

THE FOUR POTENTIAL BENEFITS

What an STR
can build for you.

Look at the full investment, not just the first-year tax result. Each benefit works differently, and none is guaranteed.

01 / CASH FLOW

Income from the property

Illustrative cash remaining after operating costs, financing and a capital reserve. Revenue and expenses can change.

Operating income after expenses, financing and reserves.
02 / TAX DEDUCTION

Potential tax savings

Eligible deductions may reduce taxable income when the resulting loss is usable under the applicable rules.

Eligibility, your work, loss limits and CPA review determine the actual result.
03 / EQUITY PAYDOWN

Build ownership over time

Each principal payment reduces the loan balance and increases your share of the property, assuming its value holds.

The pace depends on your actual financing terms.
04 / APPRECIATION

Long-term upside

The property could gain value over time. It could also stay flat or decline, so this example assumes no appreciation.

Value changes are uncertain and are not part of the modeled cash flow.
One investment. Four distinct outcomes.Principal paydown and appreciation are not spendable cash flow. A tax deduction is not a reimbursement for buying the property.
Read all example assumptions and tax-code references

Financing is illustrative, not a lender quote: $100,000 down (20%), a $400,000 loan (80%), 7.5% fixed interest and 20-year amortization. The first 12 payments total $38,668, including $29,696 interest and $8,973 principal. Figures are rounded to whole dollars; calculations use unrounded amounts. Operating expenses and revenue are assumed, not market forecasts. The $100,000 shorter-life acquisition allocation is 25% of the $400,000 depreciable acquisition basis. This fictional full-year illustration assumes 100% business use, no personal use, qualifying new or used assets acquired and placed in service in 2026, no election out of bonus depreciation, and a substantiated $100,000 shorter-life acquisition allocation plus $65,000 of additional qualifying furnishings with no double counting. It assumes the activity is nonpassive because the customer-use exception and a material participation test are met, sufficient basis and at-risk amounts, and no excess business loss or other deduction limit. It excludes regular building depreciation, closing-cost basis adjustments and tax treatment of advisory and acquisition-related costs; your CPA determines those items. Actual results and the study allocation differ by property. State conformity, credits, AMT and other tax interactions are not modeled. A shorter launch year changes income and costs. This is not an incremental benefit comparison against ordinary depreciation.

The $65,000 furnishings are funded separately and assumed placed in service in the same year. Purchase plus furnishings totals $565,000; modeled down payment plus furnishings requires $165,000 cash before closing, other setup and reserves. Furnishing purchases are not included in the displayed recurring annual cash flow, so initial-year cash outlays are materially greater. Tax savings are separate from operating cash flow and are not assumed to recur. The actual acquisition and setup budget requires property-specific quotes. Accelerating deductions reduces future depreciation and can trigger recapture upon sale.

YOUR QUESTIONS

Clarity before
commitment.

Know the capital, your role and the risks before you buy.

How much capital do I need to get started?

We recommend at least $175,000 available for an Airbnb investment, with a property-specific budget for the down payment, furnishings, setup, closing costs and reserves.

Can I choose the market and property?

Yes—we search around your budget, goals, preferred locations and owner role, then explain each property’s numbers and tradeoffs. You approve any offer; the site examples are hypothetical, not available or promised deals.

Do I need STR experience, and who operates the property?

No experience is required; we guide the search and launch and provide tools and advice while you lead day-to-day operations. Your documented work matters for material participation—our work, vendor work and automation do not count as your hours, so have your CPA review the actual arrangement.

How long does it take to buy, launch and see cash flow?

Financing, property selection, inspections, local approvals and setup determine the timeline, so we set milestones after the initial review but cannot promise a launch date. Revenue starts only when guests book a ready property, and positive cash flow depends on actual income, costs, debt payments and reserves.

Can an STR lower tax on my W-2 income?

Potentially: eligible depreciation and expenses may create a loss that offsets W-2 income if guest-use and material-participation rules are met and basis, at-risk and other limits permit it. A cost segregation study alone does not establish eligibility; your CPA determines what is deductible and usable.

What is your guarantee?

Our guarantee is to help you find and purchase a short-term rental modeled to produce at least a $100,000 first-year tax write-off or your money back.
