Mainly want to connect with those more experienced who have gone through high/low seasons.

 

And how they manage to stay on top of the tides.

Hello, I’m just about to wrap up my first year of hosting. I was wondering if I have to pay taxes on the earned money here in Puerto Rico. And if so, can I deduct the expenses that I invested in setting up. Any info would be greatly appreciated, thanks ahead…

Hello fellow hosts!.. I’m wrapping up my first year of hosting. I was wondering if I have to pay taxes on the earned income. If so, will I be able to deduct the the start up expenses? Thanks ahead.

Hello Julio,

 

If you are a sole proprietorship you report your Airbnb earnings as income and yes you can deduct your cost of service. If you are an LLC 'passing through' earning to yourself you can also do the same. If you are filing in PR, you must do so through SURI. Puerto Rico taxes LLC as a corporation. Speak with your CPA about this.

Are there any experienced hosts in the Aguadilla, Puerto Rico area? I'm searching for a property management company that can take care of cleaning my rental after each visit, handle any emergencies like a broken faucet or toilet, as well as doing some light yard maintenance. I'm new to renting our home to travelers so any guidance around this would be helpful. Thanks.

Hello ChemayO,

I was a host in Old San Juan for several years with consistent 4.5 reviews. Currently, I will  be

relocate to Aguadilla and your post caught my attention.  Have you located a property manager for your place?  Would you like to start a conversation with additional details on your requirements and very important exact location.

Look forward to chat.

Hi. Newly listing house in Dorado. It’s been an adventure for sure! 🙂  I’ve been told there is a law project that was introduced into the island congress in May 2017 that addresses the status of short term rentals being considered commercial activity, which causes some HOA headaches. This legislative proposal, if passes, will allow homeowners to continue short term rentals no matter what rules / bylaws an HOA may enact; thus a friend to us. Does anyone know about this proposal and or the name, bill number etc?  Putting out feelers to the community to see what you all may know?  Thx. 

OmG, I have a home in Dorado thinking about listing.  How has your experience been?  Do you have a property manager/or cleaning crew to recommend.  Thanks

 

Evening, If you need help listing, feel free to contact me.
