How to take advantage of new tax rules and 20% deduction on pass through income

Has anyone figured out the best way to take advantage of the new tax rules that permit a 20% deduction on pass through income? I’m wondering if setting up an LLC will facilitate this deduction for my Airbnb income.

It will. The question is do you want to be taxed as a sole proprietor and still be on the hook for self employment tax or be an LLC taxed as a corporation and elect S (S-corp status). Of course, you could setup a corporation and elect S too. Check out my page for more tax tips.
