About this book
A Complete Tax Guide for Airbnb and other short-term rental hosts
Learn everything you need to know about short-term rental taxes in Every Airbnb Host's Tax Guide. All short-term rental hosts in the United States can benefit from this complete and thorough tax guide. Every Airbnb Host's Tax Guide is the first, and still the best, of its kind.
Whether you rent your property through Airbnb, FlipKey, Craigslist, or Vrbo, you want to make sure you understand the tax rules, including the 20% pass-through deduction. Every Airbnb Host's Tax Guide tells rental hosts everything they need to know about taxes for short-term rentals, including deductions they may take, depreciation, when short-term rentals are tax-free, repairs, and tax reporting for short-term rentals.
This new edition also has updated information on how short-term rental hosts can protect themselves from IRS audits, as well as strategies for deducting rental losses in the current short-term rental environment. It discusses how the expiration of the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act (the massive tax reform law that went into effect in 2018) on December 31, 2025, will affect short-term rental hosts and what steps they can take now to protect themselves.
Take all the short-term rental deductions to which you're entitled, pay no more tax than is legally required, and stay out of trouble with the IRS. This book provides all of this information in a practical, easy-to-understand way.
