👁🗨 Sesemi STR Hot Sheet | 📲 STR Mortgages
Dear Sesemi STReet -
Did you know that in the past 18 months we’ve helped investors acquire (or are under contract) 18 STRs (11 this year!) and with just over three months left in 2025 - our goal of helping A DOZEN STR investors cross the finish line is well within reach!
🏆 Trophy Properties? ☑️
We’re very proud to be a part of our most recent Sesemi Squad transactions for investors introduced to us just a few weeks ago - and pending on a stunning, proven, luxurious, turn-key STR in a very high value, high demand and high barrier to entry market: Seaside Oregon.
ALSO…one of the ONLY Wander.com luxury approved properties on the Oregon Coast - a spectacular never rented and newer construction, turn-key property in lovely Lincoln City!
Want your own clear and concise game plan for how to cross the finish line on a lucrative 2025 STR (confidently) and with material participation to spare?
Test our proven STRrategy - and median introduction to contract of 30 DAYS!
💡How to Maximize the STR Loophole
If you’re buying a rental property just for appreciation or cash flow you’re missing a third pillar: tax savings. But how much can you really save?
That’s the million-dollar question. And after selling dozens of STRs with intentional tax strategies for real estate investors, I can tell you this:
It depends on 5 specific levers. If you know how to pull them before closing, you can lock in major savings before you ever sign the dotted line.
Here’s a quick breakdown:
1. Purchase Price
This is your starting point. But don’t assume the full amount is depreciable. Which leads to…
2. Building vs. Land Allocation
Only the building portion is depreciable. That $400K property? If the land’s worth $100K, you’re working with a $300K basis. Unless you’re buying a condo or townhome where you don’t own the land, so nearly all of it can be depreciated.
3. Property Makeup
More stuff = more write-offs. Pools. Patios. Pavers. Fencing. If it’s outside and tangible, it’s often 100% depreciable in Year 1. Same goes for furnished interiors.
4. Your Tax Bracket
$500K in depreciation isn’t worth $500K. It’s worth your tax bracket. 40% bracket? That’s $200K in savings. Only at 15%? That’s $75K. Timing your cost seg with a high-income year is key.
5. Loss Eligibility
Can you actually use the loss? You’ll need to qualify under real estate professional status or the short-term rental loophole. Otherwise, it gets suspended until you have passive income.
