Welcome back to Real Life Real Estate! It’s been a minute, but this episode is worth the wait.In Episode 16, I take you inside our newest short-term rental project we’re calling “The White House”—a 5-bedroom, 3-bathroom, 2,700 sq. ft. single-story home sitting on over an acre and a half in Northeast Florida. What started as a plan to buy a new primary residence turned into a massive pivot that leveraged one of the most powerful tools in the tax strategist’s playbook: the short-term rental loophole.By the end of this deal, not only did we wipe out our 2025 W-2 income taxes using bonus depreciation, the Augusta Rule, and other advanced tax strategies, but we also executed a 10-week, $185,000 renovation, refinanced, and walked away with $181,000 in cash-out funds—all while holding down a demanding full-time job with rotating shifts.
