The investor case for short-term rentals

Higher income per door

A well-run STR in a strong market typically generates 2 to 3x the gross income of a comparable long-term rental.

Accelerated depreciation

Cost segregation lets you front-load deductions in year one, often creating a paper loss that offsets other income.

Bonus depreciation is back

100% bonus depreciation is available for qualifying property placed in service after January 19, 2025.

1031 exchange flexibility

Roll gains from one property into the next without a tax event, compounding your portfolio over time.

The STR loophole

Material participation in a short-term rental can let losses offset active income without qualifying as a real estate professional, depending on how the activity is structured.

Professional management

Source One handles operations, so the investment stays passive in practice even when it's active on paper.

This is general information, not tax or legal advice. Every situation is different, talk with your CPA about how this applies to you.
