    • Entrepreneurship

Have you ever felt overwhelmed by the burden of hefty taxes despite your substantial earnings? In the vast world of real estate, there lies a strategy, often overlooked, that could be your ticket to greater wealth retention. Today, Ashton delves deep into the strategies of building wealth, specifically for high net worth individuals earning between $100,000 and $200,000 annually. He discusses the advantages of short-term rentals as they offer significant cash flow, tax benefits, and appreciation over time. Ashton shares a multi-tiered strategy that involves actively managing a short-term rental, leveraging the vacation rental tax loophole, and then passively investing in other real estate projects for massive depreciation benefits. 
 
He stresses the importance of understanding the tax code or having a CPA who does to maximize these benefits. Highlighting Robert Kiyosaki's principle, it's not how much you earn, but how much you keep that counts. Ashton encourages you to consider real estate investments as a solution to the hefty tax bills many face. He offers guidance on investing in both short-term rentals and larger real estate projects. If you're eager to transform your tax strategy, don't miss this episode!

[00:00 - 14:10] Optimize Wealth and Reduce Taxes with Short-Term Rentals
Ashton focuses on tax-reduction strategies for those earning $100k-$200k annually. Short-term rentals, like Airbnb, offer strong cash flow, tax benefits, and property appreciation. Managing a short-term rental allows qualification for the vacation rental tax loophole, reducing overall taxes. Active participation in the short-term rental makes its depreciation applicable to both active and passive income. Investors can maximize tax benefits by owning a short-term rental and passively investing in larger real estate projects. Robert Kiyosaki's viewpoint: It's not about earnings but the amount retained post-tax.

"Buy an Airbnb. Have active participation in it, at least for the majority of the year. Then, invest passively in some other projects or do a couple of other projects on your own.” –Ashton Levarek.
