Every Airbnb Host's Tax Guide

A Complete Tax Guide for Airbnb and Other Short-Term Rental Hosts



All four million Airbnb hosts in the United States can benefit from this book. Whether you rent your property through Airbnb, FlipKey, TripAdvisor, Craigslist, or VRBO, you want to make sure you understand the tax rules. This book is the first, and still only, one of its kind; it tells 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.



Learn everything you need to know about taxes for short-term rental hosts, including:



deductions you should be taking
how to report your short-term rental income
how to deduct losses incurred during the COVID-19 pandemic, and
vacation home and tax-free rental rules.



The new edition covers all the latest changes and updates to tax laws revised due to the coronavirus crisis. These include tax breaks that can save hosts thousands in taxes: tax credits for sick leave and family leave for self-employed hosts, employee retention credit, and tax-free treatment of landlord Paycheck Protection Program loans. This book also explains if, when, and how short-term rental hosts may deduct their losses due to COVID-19 from other nonrental income.
