In this episode of the Tax Smart REI Podcast, Thomas Castelli and Ryan Carriere, CPA, break down the two most common questions investors are asking after the passage of the “Big Beautiful Bill” and the return of 100% bonus depreciation:

- Should you invest in real estate or specifically short-term rentals for tax savings?

- When does it make sense to start working with a tax strategist?

Tune in to learn:

- Why existing landlords who haven’t done tax planning may be leaving money on the table

- How to decide if short-term rentals make sense for your goals, lifestyle, and time commitment

- The reality of material participation, hours required, and capital needed to get started

- When to engage a tax strategist if you’re already in the game or just getting started
